Through conversations with scientists, Microbios highlights the science, stories, and impact of microbes on our world.

“I truly see this as a wonderful example of how we can apply our liberal arts ideals to communicate science in ways that are accessible and engaging for everyone,” shares Santiago-Narvaez.

The podcast is part of the official podcast network of the American Society for Microbiology (ASM), a global community of more than 38,000 members. Established in 1899, ASM is the home for microbial scientists from around the globe to connect, learn, discover, and prepare for the future.
