Microbial Mondays

Microbes are constantly changing the world around us, in all sorts of seen & unseen ways. From outbreaks of the bubonic plague to outbreaks of SARS, from the yeast used in ancient beers to the yeast in your sourdough starter: microbes shape human experiences, history, & society. Join us in exploring this big microbial world! Microbial Mondays' hosts are scientists who share a passion for science communication. Alex Cloherty holds a PhD in Immunology from the University of Amsterdam, & Merel Sijbranda is completing her PhD in Immunology at the Karolinska Institute. Theme music by Jacky Deng.
