Understanding Microbes and How Fungi impact Us, ft. Alex Soare
In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of having yet another smart scientist on the podcast. Alex Soare is on to discuss a bit of basic immunology and microbiology for the first half of the podcast, then we dive into fungi and her expertise on mucormycosis. I hope this proves as informative as I found it (considering I knew nothing about fungi).
