Andy,
I think you've been hearing about the NIH-NIAID's Polly Matzinger and her
provocative (and intriguing) Danger Hypothesis. I won't go into it here,
but you should check http://www.dejanews.com for past bionet.immunology
discussions (and Polly's posting of what the theory is). If you really
want to go into this, start with her chapter in the 1994 Annual Review of
Immunology.
As for traveling the planet--NIH travel budgets aren't what they used to
be...
Cheers!
Larry

..I keep hearing about some woman that is touring the planet, preaching
..about a new theory for our basic understanding of immunology. Is this
..woman a phantom or does she exist? Has she published her theory, and where?
