Meet the challenge of Tropical Fungal Diseases, which are not easy to detect and are becoming more and more common in doctors' offices"

Fungal infections are acquired from the environment or may be endogenous in certain cases, belonging to the resident flora. In general, fungi are microorganisms that grow best in humid and warm conditions, typical of tropical climates. However, many mycoses are usually contracted in public places such as swimming pools, showers or changing rooms, i.e., places frequented by many people and where the required conditions of humidity and heat are present. In addition, fungi can behave as opportunistic germs, taking advantage of a situation in which the patient does not have sufficient defences, i.e., it is especially serious in immunosuppressed patients.

Therefore, it is necessary a specialization such as this Postgraduate certificate in Tropical Fungal Diseases that focuses on the knowledge, protocols and skills necessary for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of this type of pathologies.

In addition, it is a 100% online program that provides the student with the ease of being able to study it comfortably, wherever and whenever he/she wants.
