On Tuesday, April 14, doctoral fellows in 澳门开奖历史记录鈥檚 Integrative Biosciences (IBS) Ph.D. Program hosted 鈥淩eal Talk About COVID-19: Facts, Updates and Actions鈥� 鈥� a webinar addressing the epidemiology, symptoms, misnomers and other public health matters related to the current coronavirus pandemic.

鈥淣ow more than ever, we want to serve our community, especially our brothers and sisters of color as they are significantly more vulnerable as a result of health disparities, lower incomes and inadequate access to health care 鈥� and now, inadequate access to COVID-19 testing,鈥� explained Lauren Mayo, an IBS Ph.D. fellow, as she cited the university鈥檚 status as a land-grant institution, as well as its outreach and service mission.

The webinar featured subject-matter expertise provided Muhammad Gamal Omar, DVM, who also is an IBS Ph.D. fellow. His experience includes research with RNA viruses that behave similarly to SARS-CoV-2 鈥� the virus that causes the COVID-19 disease.
