- Werbung -The role of public health in society–from the CDC to local community organizations; The spread of infectious disease and population modeling–swarm! The role of energy and momentum in damage control–how can you best protect yourself?
Nutrition in a post-apocalyptic world–are squirrels really good for you? Managing stress in disaster situations–what’s the long-term effect of always sleeping with one eye open?
