Microbial School OutreachRutgers Professor Dr Jeff Boyd took time from his busy schedule to talk about microbes with students at Bartle Elementary School in Highland Park, NJ. He spoke about all manner of invisible life forms, but really got the kids enthused about the role of Streptomyces griseus in antibiotic production and improving healthcare worldwide.Dr Boyd also wrote to Assemblywoman Pinkin (18th District) who was so impressed with the Strep griseus story that she promised to vote for A3650, the New Jersey State Microbe law.A great book for microbiologists and non-microbiologists https://tinyurl.com/Warhol-Small-Guide -- source link
