CUTLINE 1 REVISED: (Keim and vial)
Professor Paul Keim of Northern Arizona University played a key role in analyzing anthrax from the2001 letter attacks, the worst biological attacks in U.S. history. Twenty-two people were infectedand five died. Keim’s work made his NAU laboratory one of the leading anthrax research centers inthe world. Keim is moving to a new NAU lab in 2008 that will allow him to expand his research onother dangerous germs. Keim is pictured here with a magnified photo of a vial that contains asample of spinal fluid taken from a Florida photo editor who died of anthrax in the 2001 attacks.
