There is an invisible web at the basis of life, and microbes are its ancient weavers: they regulate the planet's cycles, safeguarding the health of plants, animals, and people. Some are dangerous, many protect us. Antonella Fioravanti (Journey into the Invisible World. Microorganisms, Health, and Climate Change, Aboca), a scientist who achieved worldwide fame by finding a way to neutralize anthrax, takes us into the realm of the invisible, which—in this fragile time marked by health, climate, ecological, and energy crises—is part of the threat, but can also become our greatest ally: we just need to pay attention and take care of it. Moderated by Giorgio Volpi.
