At SNOTI Inc., a 501c3 non-profit based in North Carolina, our mission is to improve the lives of individuals by enhancing the awareness of infection prevention in hospitals, nursing homes, children’s centers, and the community at large.
Hi, I’m Bindu Mayi. I’m a microbiologist, public health advocate, and educator who believes prevention is the most powerful tool we have for protecting health. Over the years, I’ve taught thousands of medical students about microbiology, worked with the CDC on vaccine-preventable diseases, and even served with the U.S. Army to strengthen prevention programs around suicide, sexual assault, and abuse.
I love making complex science understandable and useful. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I gave more than 70 media interviews to help communities separate fact from fear, and I’ve published articles and books—including three children’s books that turn tough public health topics into empowering lessons.
Outside of work, I’ve led nonprofit efforts in awareness of child abuse and neglect; pet-assisted therapy; and now, infection prevention–all with the same goal: to make knowledge accessible, compassionate, and actionable. At heart, I’m a teacher and a lifelong learner driven to use science and storytelling to build a healthier, kinder world.
These posts are my way of putting prevention into your hands. From simple tips on stopping the spread of everyday infections to deeper looks at public health challenges, each article offers knowledge you can use right away to protect yourself and those you care about.
