Thomas Goetz: Will Antibiotics Make Ebola Crisis Worse?
California Academy of Sciences - African Hall, California Academy of Sciences
Join Thomas Goetz, author of The Remedy and former executive editor of Wired magazine, for a riveting look at tuberculosis, the world’s most lethal disease. Goetz will discuss the history of this 19th century "death sentence;" how two doctors’ unprecedented research led to our understanding of germs as transmitters of disease; and our quest to control the spread of such diseases in the 130-plus years since.
