Listen to several 2007 podcasts with Mold experts, Dr. William Croft(PhD in Anatomic Medical Pathology and mold researcher) (Episode 1) and Dr. Vincent Marinkovich(M.D., mold physician and researcher) (Episode 2) presenting about mold-related illness and sick building syndrome. This is especially valuable to listen to as Dr. Marinkovich passed away in Sept., 2007.
Episode 1: Note: Dr. Croft begins speaking about 26 minutes into the show, you might wish to skip to that section immediately, using the audio slide bar. This is a very in-depth interview, and much can be learned. I took notes and it filled twelve pages!
Thank you, Letitia Peters, mold-activist and workplace mold victim, host of these podcasts, and founder of The National Indoor Mold Society, http://nationalindoormoldsociety.org/.
