Age of Autism The Year in Review
Join the Age of Autism team and special guest EPA whistleblower Dr. David Lewis for a discussion of Institutional Research Misconduct: The Autism Researcher's Worst Nightmare. Dr. Lewis’ cutting edge scientific research forced the EPA to abandon its policy of promoting the land application of sewage sludge on farm land. He is an internationally recognized research microbiologist who discovered that the AIDS virus could be transmitted by certain types of dental equipment that dentists share between patients. His research, published in Lancet and Nature Medicine, led to the current heat-sterilization standard for dentistry worldwide.
