May Luncheon and Lecture: History and Misconceptions Surrounding Botulism
In May we will feature a presentation by Dr. Jane Talkington, the nation’s only botulism historian after the luncheon. She will discuss the history and misconceptions surrounding botulism, drawing from her new book, Recognizing Botulism: New Insights from Old Narratives, which explores how the illness is more common than widely believed.
