Microbes on the Air

The MicrobeWorld Web site, produced by the American Society for Microbiology, offers access to daily 90-second news capsules that highlight the vital role that microbes play in our lives. These snippets, created for broadcast on radio stations, are now available as downloadable podcasts. The Web site provides instructions for subscribing to the podcasts for automatic delivery to computers or portable digital audio devices.
