S1 E1, Part 2 - Introducing Will: CMiST and DePaolo Lab

In part 2 of our first podcast episode, “Introducing Will: CMiST and DePaolo Lab,” I ask Will to tell me about starting the Center for Microbiome Sciences & Therapeutics (CMiST) at the University of Washington (UW) in Seattle. Will is the director of CMiST and I'm the communications specialist, though I think a more accurate title is marketing specialist and perhaps even more accurate, Will’s right-hand man. As a visual designer, I do my best to showcase both CMiST and DePaolo Lab. I want to draw the viewer in with a pretty picture but, I want them to stay because Will is not only a brilliant scientist but, a true collaborator, and well, just a good person doing good work. And he has a great sense of humor to boot.

(I meant to say not a *medical* doctor.)

Important numbers:
9 - number of UW institutions and departments participating involved with CMiST
4 - number of neighboring institutions involved with CMiST
1 - number symposiums CMiST has hosted

If you want to read more about CMiST and check out the infographic summary from our inaugural symposium, visit our Gut Questions? podcast website and go to “Show Notes" → www.yourgutquestions.com/show-notes
