He studies viruses and the diseases they can cause in everything from mussels to humans, everywhere from the Appalachians to Africa. He particularly focuses on \"zoonautic\" diseases - those that can jump from one species to another. In a fascinating and surprisingly humorous conversation, we learn many amazing things about both the hosts and the viruses. ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/a3c1YbraVhwW4v2xenLWBwRd44ZTW5bgNm0iwR1snhg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ5Njg3LzE3MDc3/NzM3NzItYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
