Health Storytelling: Carl Zimmer and "Air-borne"
Presented by Emory University - Center for the Study of Human Health, Georgia Center for the Book

In conversation with author and journalist Maryn McKenna, New York Times columnist Carl Zimmer will lead us through the living atmosphere, weaving together gripping history and new threats to global health.
