Nerd Alert! at the Cambridge Public Library is a series of public talks where local scientists demystify cutting-edge research in a casual setting.
We usually treat bacteria as enemies that make us sick but what if they could also heal us? In this talk, we'll learn how a local stool bank uses bacteria to treat antibiotic-resistant infections and what's next for this promising new field of medicine. Presented by Justin Chen of OpenBiome.
