Webinar - COVID-19 and the Brain
Speaker: Eric Song, Ph.D.
Dr. Eric Song of Yale University will discuss his work that revealed the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to directly infect the mammalian brain (Song et al., J. Exp. Med. 2021). This important study entailed the use of several elegant approaches to demonstrate SARS-CoV-2 infection of both mouse and human brains, with clear implications for the subset of COVID-19 patients experiencing persistent neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms after resolution of the acute disease. Dr. Song will also provide updates on his current efforts and offer perspectives on future directions of SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 research.
