Dr. Brown carefully discusses the viruses. His extensive research in the HIV diseases is well described. A professional trip led him to India. An important visit to a leprosarium is recounted, and the accidental occasion of meeting Mother Theresa caps off the discussion of that trip.
Dr. Brown served in leadership with the New Jersey Department of Public Health. In this capacity his expertise was used in managing dangerous viruses and bcteria: HIV, Lyme Disease. He shares examples of conflicts between science and elected officials. Those conflicts did sometimes result in dangerous policies.
Dr. Brown has additional expertise as an educator. Another episode promises to be another wonderful conversation. d
