Join a Project
The easiest way to learn to study fungi for science with FunDiS is to join an existing project.
- Many project leaders welcome new members to help with collecting, photographing and identifying fungi.
- It’s also an opportunity to learn about drying collections and preparing them for DNA sequencing.
- Meet some new mushroom friends, explore new collecting areas, and learn while you contribute.
To see if there is a project near you check the Map of FunDiS projects.
Then check the List of registered FunDiS projects, Column G “Join?,” to see if a nearby project leader is willing to be contacted.
- If so, note the Project ID and Name and email register@fundis.org to request the leader’s contact info.
- Contact the project leader, describe your interests, experience, location and availability, and learn what assistance they are seeking.
