The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a grip on worldwide health and global economics. Advancing molecular diagnostics is central to the diagnosis and prevention efforts surrounding the de...
When producing a quality vaccine, all manufacturers must confirm the purity as well as the stability of their formulation and final product. Sample quantity and measurement time are often th...
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged in December 2019 and has spread globally, causing a pandemic of respiratory illness designated coronavirus disease 20...
Cases and deaths continue to increase steadily in most states. The pace of increase is faster than we expected, leading us to revise upward IHME forecast of deaths and cases into the future....
To execute COVID-19 testing strategies effectively, labs need to procure reliable components of the workflow without interruption – from reagents to equipment and consumables at the sc...
Dynamic models of infectious disease systems are often used to study the epidemiological characteristics of disease outbreaks, the ecological mechanisms and environmental conditions affectin...
Learning Objectives: 1. Define SARS-CoV-2 immunity, antibody testing, and discuss what is known about the meaning of these tests 2. Identify challenges in doing research during social distan...
This talk goes over the importance of face masks as a pillar of COVID-19 pandemic control. First, we review the epidemiologic evidence for how face masks reduce COVID-19 transmission from st...
In this talk, Dr. Adalja will discuss the coronavirus family in general highlighting its history. Emphasis will be placed on why this viral family has pandemic potential. Learning Objectives...
