Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker  has devoted his career to unveiling the complexities of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome—caused by exposure to damp buildings, cyanobacterial blooms, dinoflagellates, spirochetes, apicomplexans, and recluse spiders: among others.

Dr. Shoemaker began the first biotoxin illness practice in the US in 2002, and has treated over 10,000 patients with CIRS illnesses. His non-profit research group, the Center for Research on Biotoxin Associated Illnesses, has raised over $2,000,000 for private funding of academic research. As a medical expert, Dr. Shoemaker has testified in over 200 cases.

Shoemaker’s research has led to the publication of 11 books, several book chapters, and over forty peer-reviewed publications. His discovery of the role of VCS, HLA, MMP9, C4a, C3a, VEGF, TGF beta-1, NeuroQuant and several other biomarkers are widely used by healthcare practitioners across the country. Dr. Shoemaker has been training and certifying other healthcare providers since his medical retirement in 2012, and his lecture series now extends to Proficiency Partners through a 27-module training course and exam.  Dr. Shoemaker has been instrumental in bringing the academic research basis for CIRS illnesses to the public via their website www.survivingmold.com.

In this anticipated episode, listeners learn about the new data and methods of measuring Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS),  what illnesses CIRS entails, what this means for mold experts, and the importance of the original evidence of mold at ground zero for CFS. Added to the episode is a post interview Q&A with our audience members.

Joan  Bennett has been a Distinguished Professor of Plant Biology and Pathology at Rutgers University since 2006. The Bennett laboratory studies the genetics and physiology of filamentous fungi. In addition to mycotoxins and other secondary metabolites, research focuses on the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by fungi. These low molecular weight compounds are responsible for the familiar odors associated with the molds and mushrooms. Some VOCs function as semiochemicals for insects while others serve as developmental signals for fungi. The Bennett lab has tested individual fungal VOCs in model systems and found that 1-octen-3-ol ("mushroom alcohol") is a neurotoxin in Drosophila melanogaster and causes growth retardation in Arabidopsis thaliana. It also inhibits growth of the fungus that causes "white nose syndrome" in bat populations. In other studies, the Bennett lab has demonstrated that VOCs from living cultures of Trichoderma, a known biocontrol fungus, can enhance plant growth. Investigations on the mechanistic aspects of fungal VOC action are underway using a yeast knock out library. Dr. Bennett also has an active interest in fungal genomics and has been involved in genome projects for Aspergillus flavus, A. fumigatus, A. oryzae and Penicillium expansum.

Dr. Bennett was Associate VP for the Office for the Promotion of Women in Science, Engineering and Mathematics at Rutgers from 2006-2014 and continues to serve as Senior Faculty Advisor to the group.  She was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2005.

In this episode, listeners learn about genetic testing, mold, mycotoxins, and how we can pave the way to get mold illness recognized.
