Abstract

Candida auris is a recently emerged multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen capable of causing severe infections in hospitalized patients. Despite its recognition as a human pathogen a decade ago, so far the natural ecological niche(s) of C. auris remains enigmatic.

• Apologies for my English. I admire this and previous Dr Proctor’s high-quality work on C. auris. I’d love an expert like you ( I not expert in critical read of papers) to review other papers of other [bsky, 1 points, 0 comments]
