Abstract | Brazilian medical mycology considerably expanded in the last decades due to the efforts of several pioneers who started
and expanded mycology during the twentieth century. In this manuscript, we highlight some of the contributions of one of
these pioneers: Professor Luiz R. Travassos, who started his career in the field of microbiology in the 1960s. We will discuss
his contributions to the areas of medical mycology and glycobiology, with a focus on glycosphingolipids, sialic acids, and
surface enzymes. | en_US |
