The AIDS Pandemic: A note to our listeners

Our podcast is now 6 months old. During this time, we have addressed many topics related to HIV/AIDS, including recent advances in treatment, the South African disability grant program, HIV in the Southeastern United States, and Bono’s Product (RED) campaign.

If you are a regular listener, you probably know that many of the episodes have been conceived, developed, and produced by Davidson College undergraduate students. Rebecca Jameson, a senior at Davidson, discussed violence toward women and the spread of HIV. Wes Fiser, another senior, talked about his personal experiences in Mwandi, Zambia.

Over the next several months, we will be posting additional episodes by these students on a weekly basis. I hope you stay tuned. If you have any questions about this podcast, please email me at dawessner@davidson.edu. If you would like to see other HIV/AIDS projects ongoing at Davidson College, please check my web site at www.bio.davidson.edu/people/dawessner.

Thanks.
