Asociación Mexicana para el Estudio de los Hongos (AMEH)
The Asociación Mexicana para el Estudio de los Hongos is a Mexican scientific organization dedicated to the study of fungi (mycology). It brings together researchers, professors, students, and specialists interested in understanding the diversity, biology, ecology, uses, and conservation of fungi in Mexico. The association emerged as a renewal of the former Sociedad Mexicana de Micología and promotes the development of mycological research throughout the country.
Main functions of AMEH
.- Promote scientific research on fungi and their ecological, economic, nutritional, and medicinal importance.
.- Encourage the exchange of knowledge among specialists through conferences, meetings, courses, and workshops.
.- Disseminate scientific information related to mycology in Mexico and internationally.
.- Support academic training for students and researchers interested in the study of fungi.
.- Publish scientific research through its official journal, Scientia Fungorum, which features original studies in mycology.
.- Contribute to the knowledge and conservation of Mexico’s fungal diversity by supporting research on wild fungal species and their traditional uses.
