The Belgian Society for Human and Animal Mycology (BSHAM) was created in 1964 by Raymond Vanbreuseghem, physician, Professor of Parasitology at the Free University of Brussels, and Professor of Medical Mycology at the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp. |
It is an VZW/ASBL concerned with pathologies induced by fungi and yeasts such as fungal allergies, mycotoxicoses, mycetism and mycoses.
BSHAM is a bilingual society with about 200 members presently. |
|
 |
| It is directed by a Board meeting 2 or 3 times per year, most of the information being given by e-mail. A plenary administrative meeting (general meeting) is organised together with the annual scientific meeting successively in Brussels, Flanders and Wallonia. |
| All BSHAM members are automatically members of the European Confederation of Medical Mycology. Many of them are also member of the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology (ISHAM). |
