  • Overview

    Anthrax. Thought to be the sixth plague visited upon Pharoah in the Book of Exodus, the disease only causes episodic illness in humans. Yet it can cause a particularly gruesome death and can be easily treated if caught early. Our guest, Doctor Nicholas Bergman, explores the biology of naturally occurring anthrax infections in humans. Dr. Bergman received his PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Biology at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. He has published a novel paper examining some of the genomic properties of Anthrax in the Journal of Bacteriology.
