Everything's Connected: Fungal Ecology from the Sea to the Sky

7 weeks • 100 hours • 40+ video lectures
Learning tracks: MycoMind • MycoSpirit

From their influences on soil structure and nutrient cycling, to their impacts on plant and animal health, fungi are keystone organisms in the healthy functioning of any habitat. Enrich your understanding of these and many other influences that fungi have on the environment through this comprehensive course.

Topics covered include fungi in soils, mycorrhizal fungi types, lichen ecology, pathogenic and parasitic fungi, wood decay mechanisms, fungal surveying, and much more!

Soil Fungi: Identification and Propagation

7 weeks • 100 hours • 40+ video lectures
Learning tracks: MycoMind

Soil-dwelling fungi have profound impacts on soil structure and cycling, thanks to their unique abilities to alter and transport nutrients. In this course you will learn how to isolate, identify, and cultivate many of the most ecologically significant fungal types found below the soil horizon.

Topics covered include mycorrhizal fungi, soil molds, root pathogens, and much more!

Advanced Mycoremediation

7 weeks • 100 hours • 40+ video lectures
Learning tracks: MycoMind

Learn advanced protocols for degrading and mitigating pollutants by working with fungi in this one-of-a-kind course.
