In this week's episode, Rich Thayer and Mickey Urdea are interviewing Dr. Paul Keim, who was recently featured in the noteworthy 2022 Netflix documentary "The Anthrax Attacks", about his essential and pivotal scientific research used in the FBI's 2001 anthrax letters investigation. While the Netflix series focused on the twists and turns of the nationwide manhunt, here on Halteres Presents Dr. Keim is able to more thoroughly delve into the science behind his laboratory's analysis of the 2001 anthrax letters, and to explain why there may never be a true “smoking gun” in this infamous case. Dr. Paul Keim is the executive director of the Pathogen and Microbiome Institute (PMI) at Northern Arizona University (NAU), a joint program between NAU and the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) which uses genomic tools to protect America against dangerous pathogens, in particular Bacillus anthracis (anthrax). A graduate of NAU himself, where after 34 years on the faculty he holds the Cowden Endowed Chair in Microbiology and is a Regents Professor, Dr. Keim was trained as a protein biochemist before moving into molecular microbiological genetics and genomics as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Utah. Dr. Keim is an elected fellow of both the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Academy for Microbiology. The National Institutes of Health appointed him to the National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity in 2004 and served as its chairman for two years. He has published over 450 scientific research articles that have been cited over 30,000 times.

"In a given year, only about 20% of the respiratory illnesses that we see are actually caused by influenza. 80% are caused largely by other viral pathogens." Infectious disease expert Dr. Michael Osterholm joins Daniel for a frank assessment of where we are, at the beginning of October, as we as a country and world continue to navigate the torrid waters of the COVID-19 pandemic. Daniel gets the expert doctor, not exactly known for his optimism, to paint us a picture: How have we done at mitigation? What really is the science and effectiveness behind mask wearing? Can indoor air be trusted? When can we go back to the concert hall? This episode is a must-hear-- a sobering picture of where we are and what we need to do in the coming months.

In episode 57 of MicrobeWorld Video, filmed at the American Association for the Advancement of Science Meeting in Vancouver, BC Canada on February 18, 2012, Dr. Stan Maloy talks with Ron Atlas Ph.D., Chair of ASM's Biodefense Committee and Professor of Biology, University of Louisville. Stan and Ron discuss the recent recommendation by the National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity (NSABB) to withhold some of the key data regarding transmissibility from recent research on the H5N1 virus. Ron explains how the NSABB was created and the role they play together with the American Society for Microbiology in attempting to establish a set of guidelines used to safeguard the scientific knowledge base from being misused. Ron discusses the need for this research to emerge from it's current moratorium and continue in order to remain a step ahead of the virus in an attempt to be alerted to possible future pandemics.
