The Story Behind The Story: How Our Memoir Became a Tool for Science Communication
Apr 4, 2022
The Story Behind The Story: How Our Memoir Became a Tool for Science Communication, was a discussion co-sponsored by the Colorado School of Public Health on April 4, 2022. Steffanie Strathdee’s husband Tom Patterson contracted an antibiotic-resistant superbug and became deathly ill. She raced to find a treatment and with no other options, Strathdee turned to phage therapy—an unconventional treatment in which viruses are used to kill bacteria. Moderated by CSPH Dean Jon Samet, they shared their story and discussed their new book, The Perfect Predator.
