Since 2022, the AFN biennially holds the world’s only congress solely focused on anaerobic fungi!

The first International Anaerobic Fungi Congress was held in September 2022 (IAFC2022). This large online event brought together approx. 100 AFN members from all over the world in a virtual conference venue (GatherTown), to meet, present and discuss their work.

Since this conference was well-received (and we enjoyed ourselves a lot!), we held a second one. The IAFC2024 took place from October 15th to 17th, 2024.

Watch this space for announcement of details of IAFC2026!

For now, attendance of IAFC as well as access to subsequent recordings etc is only available to AFN members, BUT: AFN membership is free of charge! Anyone interested can become an AFN member. In addition to participation in AFN events and access to many helpful resources, AFN members can also benefit from weekly update emails.

Already an AFN member? Then please just visit the Members-Only section to access recordings from IAFC2022 & IAFC2024.
