  • Dating Apps and STI Notifications
    Sep 16 2025

    People use apps to find someone to date or hook up, nothing new there, but what about using apps to notify someone when they need to think about STI testing and prevention services? It’s happening (permission based, of course), and we’re exploring this today with Morgan Finke, the Communications Coordinator with Public Health Madison & Dane County in Wisconsin, and we want to talk to Morgan because HER health department is utilizing dating apps for some partner notifications.

  • Trends in Syphilitic Uveitis with Dr. Meghan Berkenstock
    Aug 4 2025
    We’ve had a lot of discussions on this podcast around syphilis, especially the alarming rates of the infection in newborns, but today we’re talking about syphilis and ocular (or eye) infections, in particular syphilitic uveitis, a disease affecting the uvea, the middle layer of the eye. It’s not very common, but it has been increasing in recent years and can severely damage one’s vision if not diagnosed and treated. To learn more, we’re fortunate to be joined by Dr. Meghan Berkenstock, an associate professor of ophthalmology at the Johns Hopkins Wilmer Eye Institute where she specializes in the care of patients with uveitis.

  • STIs in Native Communities: A Conversation with the National Indian Health Board
    Jul 7 2025
    Today we’re talking about Native Americans and sexual health, with an emphasis on sexually transmitted infections (STIs). With any group, conversations on these topics can always come around to a discussion of culture, societal norms and expectations, and so on but there is really a great deal we can explore when talking about Native communities because of the rich diversity within this population but also the importance of Tribal sovereignty. Listen as we explore these topics with our guests from the National Indian Health Board, Lacey Wind, NIHB’s Public Health Policy and Programs Director, and Audrianna “Dri” Marzette, one of the Board’s Public Health Managers who has worked on STI prevention and programs with Tribal communities.
