Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Scientists recently declared that they cracked the genetic code of all 99 known strains of the common cold virus. While this news is a clear victory for sciences, it doesn’t necessarily mean that a cure for the cold is right around the corner. Join Kojo as we learn more about the breakthrough and what it means for modern medicine.
Guests
- Dr. Stephen Liggett Professor of medicine and physiology and Director of the Cardiopulmonary Genomics Program, University of Maryland School of Medicine
