Title of Talk: Arsenic: An Ancient Enemy Reborn
Presenter: Dr. Linda Smith, co-founder and Director of Filters for Families (FFF), and Adjunct Professor at University of Denver, Colorado Women’s College.

After briefly summarizing some of the relevant arsenic chemistry and health effects, she will review the status of the testing and remediation of arsenic contamination in well water, including the work of the nonprofit foundation that she directs. Not among the least of the challenges is persuading villagers in a developing country to spend their meager financial assets on arsenic testing and remediation. The talk will be introduced by Mike Wallace. Continue reading
