Vibrio vulnificus Expert Witness
Vibrio vulnificus is the cause of 95% of all seafood-related deaths in the United States. It occurs naturally in oysters, the ingestion of which is the primary source of infection. Such infections carry a fatality rate of 50% or more, and occur primarily in males over the age of 40 who have any of several liver or blood disorders or immuno-compromising diseases (e.g. cancer). My laboratory has been studying Vibrio species for 37 years, and has worked with V. vulnificus for almost 30 years. We have published over 100 papers, and 14 book chapters, on this human pathogen. Another 150 scientific papers on Vibrio vulnificus and other pathogenic vibrios have been presented at national and international conferences. Other papers have been published on Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. My laboratory is internationally recognized for the study of Vibrio vulnificus, and I am consulted on a regular basis on many aspects of this bacterium and the disease it produces. I have also been retained in over 50 cases as a consultant and expert legal witness regarding this bacterium and other pathogenic Vibrio and Aeromonas species.
