Previous Guests

Amy Hise
Amy Hise is a prominent scientist known for her research in fungal immunity. She has a background in immunology and has contributed significantly to understanding how the immune system responds to fungal infections. Her current work involves using mouse models to investigate the mechanisms of immunity against fungi, particularly focusing on diseases such as Candida and Aspergillosis. In addition to her scientific endeavors, Amy navigates the challenges of balancing her career with motherhood, advocating for women in science.
James Lederer
James Lederer is a researcher known for his work on neutrophil trained immunity and the effects of trauma on immune cells. He has contributed to the understanding of how immune responses are altered during injury and has presented his findings at various scientific meetings, including the Society for Leukocyte Biology.
Elizabeth Kovacs
Elizabeth Kovacs is a prominent researcher in the field of immunology, focusing on aging and its impact on lung inflammation, as well as the effects of alcohol on burn patients. She has published numerous studies and is recognized for her contributions to understanding immune responses in the context of injury and recovery.
Amanda Brown
Amanda Brown is a researcher at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, specializing in the mechanisms of neuroinflammation associated with diseases, particularly during HIV infection. Her work focuses on understanding how HIV affects the brain and contributes to neurological complications, aiming to develop better therapeutic strategies.

Description

I'm Vincent Racaniello, Earth's virology Professor and I believe that education should be free. It's my goal to teach virology and other life sciences to the world. Here you'll find my lectures at Columbia University, our science shows This Week in Virology, This Week in Parasitism, This Week in Microbiology, This Week in Evolution, Immune, This Week in Neuroscience, Infectious Disease Puscast, Beyond the Noise, interviews that I've done with microbiologists, livestreams and more. Subscribe and stay tuned for future awesome science content.

MicrobeTV is sustained entirely on donations from YOU. If you too believe that education should be free, consider donating to Patreon or PayPal to ensure that this work continues to be distributed to your neighbors and friends.
