Hear the Program

In this opening sequence to Genetics of Infectious Disease, our intrepid host, John Hockenberry, is sick with a cold, and he has a dream he actually meets a microbe. The microbe, disguised as a spokesperson for "The People for the Ethical Treatment of Microbes" tries to make the case that microbes have been with us from the beginning, and we can't really live without them. But can we live with the most dangerous pathogens?

Listen to an excerpt from this program.
