Prof. César Muñoz-Fontela (BNITM) will talk about his research on SARS-CoV-2.

Many scientists in the Hamburg metropolitan area are involved in research related to SARS-CoV-2 and the COVID-19 pandemic. In cooperation with the Helmholtz graduate school for Data Science in Hamburg (DASHH), the Leibniz ScienceCampus InterACt wants to increase the visibility of this research fostering new contacts and potential collaborations. Since August 12th, 2020, we are pleased to welcome many speakers and a highly interested interdisciplinary audience. The series represents unique platform for vivid exchange and takes place every two weeks with a 30-minute lecture and room for further discussions afterwards.

On Wednesday, May 19, at 1 pm, Prof. César Muñoz-Fontela (Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine, Hamburg) will present highlights of his research on SARS-CoV-2. We are looking forward to his talk in which he will provide insights into this emerging infection from the prespective of an immunologist. Also check out a recent Nature review about animal models for SARS-CoV-2 vaccine development here.
