From the ISHAM Working Groups on Black Yeasts and Related Fungi “Black Yeasts between extremotolerance and human pathology” The Workshop inaugurating the ISHAM-affiliated Working Groups “Black Yeasts and Relatives” and “Chromoblastomycosis” will be held at the Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures in Utrecht, The Netherlands. Dates: Thursday April 26 – Saturday April 28, 2007. Venue: Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Uppsalalaan 8, NL-2628 BC Utrecht, P.O. Box 85167, NL-3508 AD Utrecht, The Netherlands, Fax +31-30-251-2097, website www.cbs.knaw.nl. Transportation: Utrecht is located in the centre of The Netherlands and easily accessible by public transport and car. A direct intercity train runs every 30 min from Schiphol International airport. From Utrecht Central Station, we recommend to take a taxi to your hotel: Motel De Biltsche Hoek, De Bilt. This hotel is located just outside Utrecht. Weather and dress: By the end of April, The Netherlands usually have their first nice days of Spring, with temperatures around 20°C. But the weather in this country is notoriously unpredictable; please bring a pullover, raincoat and umbrella. Workshop fee: We tried to keep costs at a minimum for everyone; therefore participation to the Workshop is largely free. However, as many more participants have registered than we expected (which is great!), we have a significant financial problem. We therefore request everyone to donate € 10,- per day for drinks and snacks. Those who have registered after 15 Feb will be charged an additional € 100,-. Hotel accommodation: A room has been booked for you in Motel Biltsche Hoek, De Bilt , which is close to the CBS. Rooms are € 83,50 (single) or € 100,- (double), excluding breakfast (€ 10,-). Payment is at the hotel desk. Start of the Workshop: A bus will be available at the hotel on Thursday 26 April at 13.30, and on Friday 27 April at 08.30, to bring you to the CBS. Proceedings: In contrast to earlier announcements we do not need abstracts at this stage. The outcome of the Workshop should be the basis of an issue of Studies in Mycology, scheduled for publication Spring 2008, with additional papers in Medical Mycology. Manuscripts of full papers we agreed upon during the Workshop will be expected in the course of 2007, with 31 December as a deadline. Information: Tineke van den Berg (+31-30-2122-645, van.den.berg@cbs.knaw.nl, concerning technical matters) and Sybren de Hoog (+31-30-2122-663, de.hoog@cbs.knaw.nl, concerning program).
