The Future of Auto-Inflammatory Diseases

This week, we have the distinct privilege to interview Dr. Dan Kaster, “The Father of Autio inflammatory Diseases”. His discoveries have taught us a great deal about how the immune system works, both in health and disease. His work has contributed to finding effective treatments for conditions that previously caused significant suffering and early death. Discussions around the many autoinflammatory diseases for which he is famous are had in this episode, but we dive deeper, asking about the keys to his success as an investigator as well. Dr. Kastner shares with us formative experiences as a medical student, skills he’s acquired solving the myriad of challenges he’s faced and the global collaborations he’s forged over his long and legendary career.
