Found under the <a href=\"https:\/\/parasiteswithoutborders.com\/es\/infectious-disease-puscast\/\">&#8216;Resources&#8217; tab<\/a>, this popular podcast produced by MicrobeTV and featuring Dr. Daniel Griffin (MD, Ph.D. CTropMed CTH) and Dr. Sara Dong (Ph.D.), aims to be a trusted and accessible tool to help busy clinicians, researchers, students and citizen scientists keep up-to-date on the latest infectious disease literature. It is also a reboot of a popular podcast by Infectious Disease Specialist Mark Crislip called simply <em>PusCast<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a practicing clinician, I know that in the modern world, time is precious and limited. It can be quite cumbersome to sort through a continuous stream of new information,&#8221; explained Daniel Griffin, MD, PhD, President of Parasites Without Borders. &#8220;We wanted to create a reliable and informative platform where we take all of that new information and make it more digestible, for both the professional and the layperson.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Infectious Disease Puscast <\/em>is co-hosted by Dr. Griffin and Sara Winn Dong, MD, and is released bi-monthly. In each episode, the doctors discuss the newest and most relevant findings in the field of infectious diseases. The Parasites Without Borders website now houses each episode&#8217;s video link and an accompanying transcription available for download.
