[ΦTΣ]Reminder: Phi Tau Sigma Webinar tomorrow – April 22, 2025

[Fanbin Kong]

April Webinar:

Date: Tuesday April 22, 2-3pm EST


Title: Disaster Microbiology


Speakers: Daniel Smith, Ph.D., Johns Hopkins Bloomberg school of Public Health


Topic: Natural and human-made disasters can cause tremendous physical damage, societal change, and suffering. In addition to their effects on people, disasters have been shown to alter the microbial population in the area affected. Studying microbial adaptation in disaster sites can reveal new biological processes, including mechanisms by which some microbes could become pathogenic and others could become beneficial (e.g., used for bioremediation). Given the accelerating pace of human-caused climate change and the increasing encroachment of the natural world by human activities, it is likely that this area of research will become increasingly relevant to the broader field of microbiology.
