What If Fungi Win? A Conversation with Dr. Arturo Casadevall
Description
From the delicious to the deadly, fungi—which share 50% of our DNA—present a wide range of benefits, and threats, to human health, many of which remain unexplored. Could fungal pathogens outsmart us before we find ways to combat them?
Dr. Arturo Casadevall takes up this question and discusses his new book, What If Fungi Win?, in conversation with Eric Niiler, a science reporter at The Wall Street Journal. Books will be available for purchase and signing at a reception following the program.
What If Fungi Win? is part of the Johns Hopkins Wavelengths series published by the Johns Hopkins University Press.
This event is presented by the Sheridan Libraries & University Museums, Office of Research, and Hopkins Press.
