Summary

This study aims to learn more about cryptococcosis, a fungal infection, in adults who were previously healthy and have no known immune problems. Researchers will collect medical records and samples from 800 participants to understand the full range of symptoms, how the immune system responds, and what genetic factors might make someone more likely to get the infection. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is to gather knowledge to improve future care.
