Science Talks

Soon after the pandemic started, more than half a million dollars was rapidly reallocated to supply thirteen interdisciplinary teams with immediate funding to pursue basic science, technology, clinical or population-based research projects that directly addressed COVID-19.

During the course of this and future episodes, we will learn more about the inspiration behind some of the team projects, what the rapid funding allowed them to do, and the progress they have made towards their goals.

Dr. Kristen Pogreba Brown, assistant professor of public health specializing in epidemiology and biostatistics joins us to share more about her work on the COVID-19 pandemic.
