There’s a lot of noise — mostly political and ideological — surrounding the pandemic. So much so that the important things, including the scientific efforts to study the virus, get lost. But scientists around the world are using the technology and methods they use in their own research to study COVID-19; many of these scientists, according to the Morgridge Institute for Research at UW-Madison, have never studied viruses before. Hear from five Morgridge Institute researchers — Brian Bockelman, John Brubacher, Ben Cox, Tony Gitter and Katie Overmyer — who jumped in to help at this online panel discussion. RSVP here.

press release: Scientists across the globe are rapidly applying their technology and methods to answer COVID-19 questions, and many of them have never studied viruses before now. Hear from five Morgridge Institute for Research scientists who seized the opportunity to contribute to the body of scientific knowledge around SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. Learn about the novel ways they collaborate, measure, engineer, integrate, and find meaning in mountains of data—inspired by the idea that the scientific community can work together to bring an end to this pandemic.
