2018 New Jersey APIC / ID Society Lecture: What an Amazing Line-Up!



Dr. Michael Osterholm




Thank you to the New Jersey APIC (Association of Professionals in Infection Control) Chapter and to the NJ ID Society for inviting me to speak at their annual infectious diseases conference. The meeting theme was The Changing Paradigm of Infectious Disease Prevention.

It was a particular honor to share the podium with Professor Michael Osterholm of the University of Minnesota and author of Deadliest Enemy, Our War Against Killer Germs. Other esteemed colleagues included Drs. David Calfee (Cornell University), Bill Rutala (UNC Chapel Hill) and Thomas Kirn (Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School).

I was both humbled and honored to be a part of the conference.

The turnout was superb.

As always, I learn more than I teach at these events.
