Virology blog was the first science website I followed, its been quite a few years now and it was an inspiration to me in using the internet to disseminate information on infectious diseases and up-to-date outbreak news.

Because of my guest today, I saw real value in this type of reporting or blogging.

He is a pioneer in science communication online, podcasting and generally disseminating very important and useful information.

In addition, he is a world renown virologist, particularly in the research of poliovirus.
