Congratulations once again to our graduate Lawrence Roberge

Following the three articles Lawrence Roberge published last year “Countermeasures to a Non-Indigenous Species- Biological Weapons attack”; “Strategies for Discernment of an Attack and Countermeasures; and “Wait ’til Al-Qaida gets hold of some bugs!”- he was recently interviewed by NEWSMAXTV this past month on the possibility of invasive species as the next biological weapon.

I recommend that you watch this interesting discussion through the link below.

In addition to his interview he has published yet another two articles on “Chikungunya- New Mosquito-Borne Virus” and “Chikungunya Virus (CHIKV): Coming to America” where he discusses the virus transmitted by the bite of an infected mosquito. His work has been published through MassLive a local news website and the Journal of Biosafety.
