Welcome to Meet the Microbiologist!

Welcome back, Meet the Scientist subscribers! For those of you who never heard an episode of Meet the Scientist, thanks for taking a listen. We're excited to tell all of you we're now Meet the Microbiologist (MTM). MTM is the same great, one-on-one conversations captured in Meet the Scientist just with a new name and a new host.  Julie Wolf of the American Society for Microbiology will be bringing back the podcast with all new episodes with scientists who work in one of the many areas of the microbial sciences — genomics, antibiotic resistance, virology, synthetic biology, emerging infectious diseases, microbial ecology, public health, probiotics, and more! The first two new episodes will be released September 28th, beginning with an episode with Vincent Racaneillo of This Week in Microbiology taking about his research on polio and Zika virus, and his experience as a science communicator. The other episode, released the same day, is with Raymond St. James discussing applications of insect-pathogenic fungi as plant fertilizers and mosquito control agents.  Make sure to subscribe, for free, wherever you listen to podcasts including iTunes, Android, or get each episode delivered by email.
