""It's an overwhelming feeling knowing that what I'm doing someday can change - it already has - medical history..." - Tim Friede"
Tim Friede, a self-taught herpetologist from Wisconsin, has allowed himself to be bitten by venomous snakes over 200 times to aid research on a universal antivenom. His unique antibodies show promise in neutralizing the venom of 19 deadly snake species, as evidenced by mouse studies reported in the journal Cell. This breakthrough could significantly impact the medical community, potentially saving countless lives as snake bites remain a serious global health issue, particularly amidst climate change.
