Learning Objectives: 

  1. Describe the shifting epidemiology of coccidioidomycosis and its impacts on specific historically-marginalized patient populations
  2. Understand the challenges in Coccidioides biological research and how this has led to the paucity of current effective treatments.
  3. Describe how new biological discoveries in Coccidioides will lead to new treatment strategies for coccidioidomycosis.

We encourage everyone to attend the Grand Rounds seminars in person at the Oberndorf Auditorium at UCSF Medical Center Mission Bay. For those unable to do so, the Zoom option is still available.
