Dr. Duncan MacCannell (Duncan MacCannell) from CDC talking about now "Bootstrapping National Genomic Surveillance of SARS-CoV-2", follow his talk live at -> facebook.com/watch/live/?v=…

Dr. MacCannell highlighting national genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, enabled by massive sequencing efforts across numerous labs from each US state #covirt2021 #COVID19

DM: Kinetics of variants of concern can vary; some states are showing a very rapid expansion of B.1.1.7, others not as rapid of an expansion #covirt2021 #COVID19

DM: Now explaining the decision to promote B.1.427 to a variant of concern --> due to response to monoclonal antibodies and fairly widespread, met all criteria : cdc.gov/coronavirus/20… #covirt2021 #COVID19

Pilar Gallego from GXB_Universidad_Vigo is presenting "Intrahost genomic variation in #SARSCoV2 transmission clusters in NW Spain" @dposada_ Lab! #covirt2021 @epicovigal epicovigal.webs7.uvigo.es

SARS-CoV2 Evolution and Variants! #covirt2021 Dr. Nídia Sequeira Trovão Nídia S. Trovão, PhD from Fogarty International Center #NIH 👉nidiatrovao.com 👉outbrerak.info Great overview #variants and mutations & vaccines! Live: fb.watch/4AjlwPknIy/

Dr. Maurico Rigo from Kavraki Lab presenting now his exciting work on --> "Structural analysis tools for drug development and target identification against SARS-CoV-2" #covirt2021 #COVID19

Dr. Dinesh Aggarwal (Dinesh Aggarwal) from COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) Consortium presenting "Sequencing to understand transmission at regional and national scales in the UK". Really nice fine-grain detail about looking for SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the UK and tracking variants of interest. #covirt2021

COVID-19 Research Symposium I've helped organize is taking place today, still lots of content left including a keynote talk from Don Milton @donmilton.bsky.social , check it out on FB live here -> facebook.com/Covirt19/live_… #covirt2021 #COVID19 COV-IRT The Ken Kennedy Institute

Dr. Sonia Villapol (Sonia Villapol, Ph.D. 🔬🧠) now presenting on Long-COVID at #covirt2021. very thorough, deep dive into the long-term effects of COVID-19. medrxiv.org/content/10.110… #COVID19

Dr. Robert Meller (Meller Lab) presenting on transcriptomic data that identifies the severity of infection of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens. suggests using a panel of genes instead of a single one #covirt2021 #COVID19

Dr. Andy Futreal and Dr. David Jaffray from MD Anderson Cancer Center presenting their work on D3CODE, data-driven determinants of COVID-19 oncology effort. #covirt2021 #COVID19

Dr. Andy Futreal now highlighting that the D3CODE effort has tracked over 3000 COVID-19 + cancer patients and is hopeful that this will help empower future research in this important area #covirt2021 #COVID19

Today's symposium is still going strong, with over an hour to go! You can catch the final lightning talks and Dr. Don Milton's (Don Milton @donmilton.bsky.social) keynote, and past, present, & future of COV-IRT panel discussion moderated by Ryan Anthony Leo Elworth on FB live: facebook.com/Covirt19/live_… #covirt2021

Read my latest #research on #MachineLearning and #NetworkMedicine for #DrugRepurposing for #COVID19 just published in Patterns, a Cell Press journal with my postdocs Suzana Santos, Mateo Torres, Diego Galeano, and María del Mar and Luca Cernuzzi Huge thanks to COV-IRT cell.com/patterns/fullt…

They say that good things come in small packages. But now, Afshin Beheshti's lab NASA Ames & Lead of COV-IRT provides evidence that a circulating microRNA can make a macro difference against COVID-19 through early diagnosis & as a therapeutic target. bit.ly/2ZvoZEh
