This process, called quorum sensing, enables bacteria to do things they can’t do as a single cell, like successfully infect and cause disease in humans.  Bonnie Bassler, Ph.D., the Squibb Professor of Molecular Biology at Princeton University and President-elect for the American Society for Microbiology, has been researching strategies that can interfere with quorum sensing and will hopefully yield novel antibiotics to prevent disease.  In this episode of MicrobeWorld Video we present the full presentation Dr. Bassler gave at the Marian Koshland Science Museum in Washington, D.C. on June 18, 2009. Not only does Dr. Bassler explain the mechanisms of bacterial communication, but she also puts forth her theories on how we can disrupt this communication for human benefit.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/" >csuspect</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ASM">ASM</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Science">Science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/bacterial">bacterial</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/bassler">bassler</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/bonnie">bonnie</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/communication">communication</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbeworld">microbeworld</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbiology">microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/quorum">quorum</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/sensing">sensing</a></p> Tue, 18 Aug 2009 17:55:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/53/ ASM Science bacterial bassler bonnie communication microbeworld microbiology quorum sensing csuspect Tiny Conspiracies http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/36/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/36/" title="MicrobeWorld Video - Ep. 24 - An Iconography of Contagion" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_461c9756.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="MicrobeWorld Video - Ep. 24 - An Iconography of Contagion" border="0" /></a></p> In this episode of MicrobeWorld Video we visit the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C., for the opening of "An Iconography of Contagion," an art exhibition featuring more than 20 public health posters from the 1920s to the 1990s.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/" >csuspect</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/*">*</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/academy">academy</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/aids">aids</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/art">art</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/asm">asm</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/contagion">contagion</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/dc">dc</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/disease">disease</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/exhibit">exhibit</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/health">health</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/iconography">iconography</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/infectious">infectious</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/jd">jd</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/library">library</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/medicine">medicine</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/michael">michael</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/national">national</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/posters">posters</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/public">public</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/sappol">sappol</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/science">science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/talasek">talasek</a></p> Fri, 28 Nov 2008 23:01:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/36/ * academy aids art asm contagion dc disease exhibit health iconography infectious jd library medicine michael national posters public sappol science talasek csuspect MicrobeWorld Video - Ep. 24 - An Iconography of Contagion http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/34/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/34/" title="Antibiotics: Is a Strong Offense the Best Defense?

In part 2 of this 3 part video series, Dr. Levy discusses how antibiotic resistance develops, the development practices drug companies employ when producing antimicrobials, and how this process may change in the future. Dr. Tollefson outlines how the FDA is encouraging the development of antibiotics in an industry that is mostly focussed on manufacturing drugs for chronic illnesses. Dr. Levy is Professor of Molecular Biology and Microbiology at Tufts University School of Medicine where he is the Director of the Center for Adaptation Genetics and Drug Resistance. He directs research on mechanisms of bacterial antibiotic resistance. Stuart Levy is also Staff Physician at the Tufts Medical Center and he also serves as the president of The International Alliance for the Prudent Use of Antibiotics. Dr. Tollefson is Assistant Commissioner for Science at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). She previously served as Deputy Director of the Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM), where she led CVM's efforts to implement a risk-based approach to address antimicrobial resistance, fulfilling a 2001 Congressional mandate, and was instrumental in the founding of the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System for Enteric Bacteria. Tollefson also served as Chief of Epidemiology in the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition where she successfully investigated numerous outbreaks of food borne disease and served as liaison to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Part 3 will be published next week.

(Part 1) MWV21" border="0" /></a></p> Will we become defenseless against bacteria? Will bacteria always find a way to infect and even kill us? The emergence of antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria poses an enormous problem around the world. Scientists believe that the overuse of antibiotics is increasing the appearance of these pathogens. In the US, increasing casualties resulting from drug resistant staphylococcus infections received wide media attention. While antibiotics only work on bacterial infections, many patients and doctors regard antibiotics as a front-line form of treating any type of infection. Antibiotics are often prescribed because the specific pathogen that is causing an illness is often difficult to determine. In some cases they are used as a preventative measure. But is this the best defense? Are there ways to beat bacteria at their own game? On September 18, 2008 at the Koshland Science Museum in Washington, D.C., Dr. Stuart Levy, professor of Molecular Biology and Microbiology at Tufts University School of Medicine and Dr. Linda Tollefson, Assistant Commissioner for Science at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, discussed how to optimize antibiotic use and how to minimize the emergence of drug resistant pathogens. In part 1 of this 3 part video series, Dr. Levy discusses the basics of microbial pathogens, bacteria, and antibiotic resistance. And, Dr. Tollefson outlines the various types and classes of antibiotic drugs, approved uses, and current levels of effectiveness. <p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/" >csuspect</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ASM">ASM</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/American">American</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Antibiotics">Antibiotics</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Koshland">Koshland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Koshland">Koshland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Levy">Levy</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Levy">Levy</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Linda">Linda</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Linda">Linda</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Stuart">Stuart</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Stuart">Stuart</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Tollefson">Tollefson</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Tollefson">Tollefson</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/animals">animals</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/drugs">drugs</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/health">health</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/health">health</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbes">microbes</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbes">microbes</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbeworld">microbeworld</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbeworld">microbeworld</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbiology">microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbiology">microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/museum">museum</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/museum">museum</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/resistance">resistance</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/resistance">resistance</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/science">science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/science">science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/society">society</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/society">society</a></p> Mon, 20 Oct 2008 16:21:05 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/32/ ASM American Antibiotics Koshland Koshland Levy Levy Linda Linda Stuart Stuart Tollefson Tollefson animals drugs health health microbes microbes microbeworld microbeworld microbiology microbiology museum museum resistance resistance science science society society csuspect Antibiotics - Is a Strong Offense the Best Defense?

Whatever you call him, Carl Winter, Extension Food Toxicologist and Director of the FoodSafe Program at UC Davis, performs parodies of contemporary popular music by modifying lyrics to address food safety issues such as bacterial contamination, irradiation, biotechnology, government regulation, and pesticides. The goal of his songs is to provide science-based food safety information in a fun, accessible way. Thanks to a grant from the USDA, Dr. Winter is now studying how to integrate his music into traditional food safety education programs. Dr. Winter's music goes beyond simply educating those who work with food and in this video he shares some of his tips to empower the everyday consumer looking to prevent the spread of foodborne illness.

First isolated in Uganda in 1937, the virus can cause severe human meningitis or encephalitis in 1% of those infected. In 2007 the U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported 124 fatalities. The rapid spread of West Nile virus has put local and state mosquito surveillance programs on the front line of public health and disease preparedness. In this episode, MicrobeWorld Video interviews Dr. Jorge Arias, an expert in vector-borne diseases of the Americas. Arias currently serves as the Environmental Health Supervisor of the Fairfax County Health Department in Northern Virginia. In this role, he is responsible for directing the Disease-Carrying Insects Program which focuses on West Nile virus and Lyme disease.

Microbiology, discusses the new One Health Initiative that recognizes the inter-relationships among human, animal, and environmental health and seeks to enhance communication, cooperation, and collaboration in integrating these areas for the health and well-being of all species. Development of the One Health Initiative began in 2007 with the American Veterinary Medical Association's (AVMA) efforts to strengthen communications and collaboration with colleagues in human medicine. The AVMA established a Task Force on this issue which released specific recommendations in June 2008. The American Medical Association (AMA) in June 2007 passed a resolution supporting the Initiative and strengthening collaboration between human and veterinary medicine in dealing with zoonotic diseases. Other endorsers include the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, American Medical Association, American Society of Tropical Medicine and Health (ASTMH), the American Phytopathological Society (APS), several smaller veterinary organizations, and over 300 individual scientists, including current and past leaders of the ASM.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/" >csuspect</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/AMA">AMA</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ASM">ASM</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/AVMA">AVMA</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Animals">Animals</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/CDC">CDC</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Centers">Centers</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Control">Control</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Disease">Disease</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Prevention">Prevention</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/american">american</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/atlas">atlas</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/disease">disease</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/for">for</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/health">health</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/infectious">infectious</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbiology">microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/one">one</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ron">ron</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ronald">ronald</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/science">science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/society">society</a></p> Thu, 31 Jul 2008 19:53:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/19/ AMA ASM AVMA Animals CDC Centers Control Disease Prevention american atlas disease for health infectious microbiology one ron ronald science society csuspect One Health MWV18 http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/13/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/13/" title="Return to Zambia MWV17" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_1e280f60_v1.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Return to Zambia MWV17" border="0" /></a></p> The American Society for Microbiology is helping African nations foster a scientific community that is better able to address thecurrent and future problems that threaten not only the local population, but the world at large. Like many African countries, Zambia and South Africa are deeply affected by HIV and tuberculosis, as well as a number of other infectious diseases. In March of 2008, ASM President Cliff Houston, Ph.D., traveled to Zambia and South Africa to gauge and assess the Societys efforts to transfer knowledge and state of the art diagnostic technology training support in laboratories, schools and universities, and to assist in meeting the goals for care and treatment of people living with TB and HIV in these resource-limited countries.<p> By <a

human health and welfare. In this episode of MicrobeWorld Video marine scientists Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, Ph.D., chair of marine studies at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia, and Kiho Kim, Ph.D., director of the environmental studies program at American University, explain the important relationship between microbes and corals, and how this delicate symbiosis that sustains life on and around reefs is facing numerous threats from human interactions to global climate change. In addition, Tundi Agardy, Ph.D., founder and executive director of Sound Seas, discusses the need for public policy and community-based conservation efforts that may help stave off the degradation of these vital ocean ecosystems. According to a 2004 report issued by the World Wildlife Fund, 24% of the world's reefs are under imminent risk of collapse through human pressures; and a further 26% are under a longer term threat of collapse. If nothing is done to protect these resources, many scientists estimate that reefs around the West Indies in the Caribbean will be gone by 2020, while the Great Barrier Reef may only last for another three decades.

Produced by Active Cultures, the vernacular theatre of Maryland, Petri Dish Circus is a play loosely based off of the classic non fiction novel Microbe Hunters by Paul Henry de Kruif. Much like the original book first published in 1926 that describes 12 historical milestones in science, Active Cultures reenacts "the daring-do of Louis Pasteur in his Parisian lab, the Scotch fortitude of Ronald Ross as he travels through disease-stricken Africa, and the melancholy saga of Walter Reed as he battles Yellow Jack in Cuba" - all with a healthy dose of humor. In this episode we interview Mary Resing, artistic director for Active Cultures, who talks about Microbe Hunters as inspiration for theatre and her whimsical, and slightly pointed, approach to portraying the women featured in de Kruif's work.

One idea is to introduce a non-native oyster from China called Crassostrea ariakensis. In this video podcast, MicrobeWorld talks about current research underway with C. ariakensis, the potential risk of new diseases that could affect the Bay's ecology and/or human health, the attitudes of Maryland's watermen, and the role of local, state and federal policy. Special thanks goes out to the DC Science Writers Association, the Marian Koshland Science Museum and the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science's Horn Point Laboratory for helping with the logistics and planning of the shoot.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/" >csuspect</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/ASM">ASM</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/American">American</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Center">Center</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Dermo">Dermo</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Environmental">Environmental</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Horn">Horn</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Laboratory">Laboratory</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/MSX">MSX</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Maryland">Maryland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Microbiology">Microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Point">Point</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Quarantine">Quarantine</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Science">Science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/Society">Society</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/University">University</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/chesapeake bay">chesapeake bay</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/disease">disease</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/environment">environment</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/for">for</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/koshland">koshland</a> (<a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/1/6.94/koshland/">0:06</a>) , <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/maryland">maryland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/microbiology">microbiology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/museum">museum</a> (<a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/1/6.94/museum/">0:06</a>) , <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/non-native">non-native</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/of">of</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/oysters">oysters</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/science">science</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/seafood">seafood</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/tags/watermen">watermen</a></p> Thu, 01 Nov 2007 20:59:36 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/csuspect/videos/1/ ASM American Center Dermo Environmental Horn Laboratory MSX Maryland Microbiology Point Quarantine Science Society University chesapeake bay disease environment for koshland maryland microbiology museum non-native of oysters science seafood watermen csuspect Save the Oysters - Non-native Species
