SCIENCE OF FEAR

摘要

A few months ago, I interviewed Dr. Charles Chiu, infectious-disease specialist and director of the UCSF Viral Diagnostics and Discovery Center. He's pleasant and upbeat, willing to geek out on dumb questions. He -also scared me to death. His infectious-disease research is systems-based, meaning that he doesn't just test a hypothesis ("Perhaps this sort of bat carries this sort of virus").
