The group of Veterinary Mycology of the UAB is a recognised research group by the Government of Catalonia. The group focuses on the study of fungi as causative agents of pathological processes related to infectious diseases and mycotoxicosis that can affect both animals and humans. The interest lies in the importance of identifying the agents of mycotoxins to control the presence of mycotoxins in food and feedstuffs. For the study of fungal infection in animals, they want to know the aetiology of such diseases which are in some cases frequent zoonoses.
