1. What exactly does this service provide? The TIMM Webcasting Portal gives you the opportunity to view video presentations, which took place during the TIMM 2011 Congress in Valencia, Spain via the Internet at any time (on-demand). More specifically, you can view the video of the person presenting along with his/her PowerPoint slides via streaming. The advantage is that you can refer to this video content at any time you need, as often as you need at absolutely no cost. The objective of the service is to help spread education on Mycology. 2.

3. How can I see the Video content?
