What exactly is bioterrorism, and what does it have to do with cleaning and restoration? Bioterrorism expert Dr. George Buck, Jeff Jones of the Microbial Warrior Experience, Jim Thompson of Jim Thompson & Co., and Larry Cooper of Experience events join us for a panel discussion on the role of cleaning and restoration pros in bioterrorism response. They highlight the threats we face, potential approaches for responding and effective products for treatment. More than anything, they highlight the importance of training more forensic operators. This will be the focus of two keynote presentations at the 2022 Experience Conference & Exhibition, taking place April 6-8 in Cincinnati.

Jeff Cross joins host Kayla McGowan to discuss AI in industry media, the value that deadlines bring, collaboration, and why coffee is part of their workflow.
