After being forced to cancel the final installment in a special Earth Day-themed series, the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery's Crossroads of Ideas interdisciplinary lecture series made a quick pivot to the COVID-19 pandemic. Part three in the web-based series asks a question on the minds of many right now: "Where do we go from here?" Discussing the topic with moderator Jo Handelsman (Wisconsin Institute for Discovery director) are UW professors Yoshihiro Kawaoka, Laura McClure, David O'Connor and Maureen Smith. Sign up at discovery.wisc.edu for webinar access; part one and part two can be viewed on YouTube.
