Terézia Beck is a university teacher at the Department of Biology and Environmental Studies, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Matej Bel University in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia. She teaches courses in Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Diversity and Phylogenesis of Protists, Algae and Fungi, Plant Cytology, Anatomy and Morphology, Plant Physiology, and Molecular Ecology, with consultation hours held Monday-Tuesday 09:00-11:00. Her educational background includes: PhD in Evolution of Ecosystems and their Protection (2015-2019), Matej Bel University, Faculty of Natural Sciences RNDr. in Ecology and Protection of Ecosystems (2016-2018), Matej Bel University, Faculty of Natural Sciences Mgr. in Nature and Landscape Conservation and Use (2013-2015), Comenius University in Bratislava, Faculty of Natural Sciences Dr. Beck's research focuses on mycology , particularly the molecular diversity and phylogenesis of wood-decay fungi including Ganoderma and Fomes fomentarius . She employs advanced techniques such as ITS sequencing, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and fuzzy logic systems to study fungal identification, host-pathogen interactions, and ecological adaptations in urban and natural ecosystems across Central Europe. Her recent publications (2017-2022) demonstrate consistent contributions to fungal systematics, revealing cryptic diversity in Ganoderma species and pioneering identification methods for wood-decay macrofungi. Key thematic areas include molecular ecology of euglenoid flagellates, synanthropic processes in fungal communities, and host-specific adaptations of wood-decaying fungi in Mediterranean and Central European habitats. Dr. Beck serves as co-worker on two VEGA research projects: VEGA 1/0694/21 ( The influence of intra-and extracellular factors on the metabolism and motility of euglenoid flagellates ) and VEGA 1/0564/21 ( Interactions of wood-decay macromycetes and woody plants in habitats with different levels of preservation ). No graduate students are documented in available records. She actively collaborates within the Department of Biology and Environmental Studies and maintains professional memberships in the Slovak Mycological Society and the Slovak Society for Agricultural, Forestry, Food and Veterinary Sciences under the Slovak Academy of Sciences.
