In the midst of the uncertainty caused by COVID-19, a new forum has emerged that brings together leading researchers, physicians and scholars from across the world. Every week, they’re sharing the latest research with a speed and openness unthinkable before the virus: at Columbia’s weekly Virtual COVID-19 Symposium.

What are U.S. physicians learning from doctors in Italy? How can scientists develop treatments that keep up with the virus’ ability to mutate? What do we know about keeping healthcare workers healthy? How are people spending their money during the pandemic? Tune in to this week’s episode of Lab in the Time of Coronavirus to learn about this unique gathering, the questions it tackles and the collaborations it fosters.
