The Fungal Science Crisis No One Is Talking About | In Vivo with Dr. James Scott | EP. 17

Fungi shape our world in ways most people don’t realize—from medicine to food, and even in public health. But right now, one of the most important fungal research collections in the world is at risk of disappearing forever.

In this episode of In Vivo, I sit down with Dr. James Scott, a leading mycologist and public health scientist, to discuss:

- How fungi are essential to medicine, food, and science

- Why the UAMH fungal biobank is facing an existential threat

- How losing this collection could impact future scientific discoveries

- What we can do to prevent this priceless archive from being lost

Join me for a crucial discussion on fungal science, public health, and what’s at stake.
