Cryptococcus neoformans causes the fungal infection cryptococcosis, which typically affects the lungs and can spread to the brain, causing cryptococcal meningitis and other severe systemic infections, especially in immunocompromised individuals such as those with HIV/AIDS. The fungus is found in the environment in soil and bird droppings, and people become infected by inhaling contaminated dust.
