As per https://pragativadi.com/advanced-molecul...ubaneswar/ an Advanced Molecular And Diagnostic Research Centre For Fungi was Inaugurated At AIIMS Bhubaneswar. It will be 
a first-of-its-kind Lab in Eastern India to act as a referral centre. Following is a quote from that article:

The lab will act as a referral center for eastern India. It will help identify medical fungi, offering various serological, molecular, and antifungal susceptibility testing services for patients with different fungal infections. Additionally, the lab will provide observership / hands-on laboratory training opportunities at our center to microbiology trainees or practicing microbiologists throughout the year. Hospitals experiencing outbreaks of fungal infections can seek help from this center to identify underlying reasons for an outbreak to terminate the episode, and implement measures to prevent future incidents.
