Episode 4 - A post-antibiotic future where we lose the fight against bacteria

Sep 8, 2021

Hello lovely subscribers!

Episode 4 has dropped! This time imagining a post-antibiotic future in India where we can no longer fight bacterial infections - because bacteria have learned to resist our entire arsenal of antibiotics.

It’s a pretty scary future that we’re already dipping our feet into. But there are lots of people in India trying to figure out how we can *avoid* this dystopian future. So, this episode sets out to tell a story of how we can imagine a different path to a different future.

From solving complex social problems to finding new antibiotics in India - I speak with two doctors, and the founder of a small Indian company trying to test and manufacture a new class of antibiotics because big pharma doesn't want to.

Oh, and my grandma makes a brief appearance in this episode!

There’s going to be a bonus episode that’ll drop in a few days.
