The International Society for Mushroom Science

The International Society for Mushroom Science (ISMS) seeks to further the cultivation of edible (including medicinal) macrofungi. It is non-political and non-profit making. The objectives of ISMS are the dissemination of information on new developments and the science of mushrooms and to stimulate exchange of new ideas between growers and scientists around the world.

ISMS publishes a newsletter, Mushrooms International four times a year. It includes: news and views from around the world, a list of forthcoming events and a bibliography of publications relating to all aspects of cultivated mushrooms which have recently appeared in the scientific press and mushroom grower periodicals.

ISMS sponsors a major international congress on mushrooms, such as the upcoming one in Capetown South Africa in 2008, every 3-5 years. Other seminars, meetings and workshops are endorsed and supported by ISMS working with national committees.
