| Summary: |
(CIT): NIH Clinical Center’s 2006 Medicine for the Public lecture series When AIDS swept the nation 25 years ago, the population panicked. Scientists were pressured to approve drugs quickly. They had to battle public perceptions while trying to follow the painstaking scientific process of gathering data and developing treatments. Dr. Masur will explain how those experiences are shaping how scientists will deal with new emerging infections, such as bird flu, SARS, and West Nile virus. |
