What I would like to contribute: For the Cryptococcosis article, I would like to add some information about specific cases involving this fungus. Ideally I would like to find and add information on specific case studies that have been done on it. In addition, I would like to add some information on what conditions this fungus thrives under, and add to the information on its life history and evolutionary background. Also, adding a history of the earliest recorded encounters people had with it, and early studies might be interesting as well. There is already an existing lead section and structured article in place, so I will be primarily adding to it rather than outlining an entirely new article. //
Name of the Article: Cryptococcosis // Section I will be adding to: Cause // Sections I will be adding: History, Evolution //
