The incidence of aspergillosis and other ‘deep’ fungal infections has vastly increased since the mid-20th century, when the number of at-risk patients began to grow. This was a result of new developments in medicine leading to a rise in the number of patients on medications such as steroids and immunosuppressants. The Aspergillus Website is regularly updated with recent publications on this group of diseases and their treatment. However, it is also interesting to look back at older sources on aspergillosis and consider how research and treatments have evolved: this page hosts a number of important historical and global sources. For an introduction to the history of invasive aspergillosis, please see:
