LIVE Symposium
Tuesday, November 29, 2022
9:00 AM - 12:00 PM Eastern Time
The scientific community is taking stock of how COVID-19 affected and continues to affect society. Researchers evaluate what has been learned from the COVID-19 pandemic in many areas, including
- disease detection and tracing
- effectiveness of public health measures
- virus behavior, mutations, and variants
- treatment and vaccine development.
In this virtual symposium brought to you by The Scientist, an expert panel will examine what the research community has learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, what remains to be uncovered, and what lessons should be remembered for the future.
