SUMMARY:Research on Tap: Wearables and Biosensors for Environmental and Human Health
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Catherine Klapperich \nSensitive and more portable sensing platforms will allow us to quantify and predict how the world around us impacts human health and the environment. Monitoring the various chemicals and biomolecules around us and in our bodies is important in a wide range of disciplines including human development and disease\, epidemiology\, climate change\, food safety\, water management\, and many others. \nFor this Research on Tap\, we will bring together researchers from medicine\, public health\, engineering\, biology\, physics\, chemistry\, and environmental and data sciences to explore how new biosensing technologies and data analytics can drive new hypotheses and solutions for better health. \nFeaturing: Karen Allen | James Galagan | Christopher Gill | Matti Groll | Rebecca Khurshid | Yannis Paschalidis | Reza Rawassizadeh | Rob Reinhart | David Starobinski | Selim Ünlü

SUMMARY:Hit Me with Your Best Shot: Vaccines and COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:With an estimated 35 million infected and over 1 million deaths\, SARS-CoV-2 has ravaged the world. We are waiting for scientists to produce a life-saving vaccine that can prevent the serious illness COVID-19 and help bring this pandemic to an end. Currently\, there are nearly 200 different vaccines in various stages of development. How does SARS-CoV-2 cause disease\, and how do vaccines work to prevent us from getting sick? How are scientists and manufacturers working together to safely speed up the vaccine development process which typically takes years? In this lecture\, we will discuss how we can enable the immune system to fight serious infection. \nTime: 6:30-8:30 p.m.\, Wednesday\, December 2nd \nJoin us on: Zoom (password: Seminar) or YouTube Live \nSpeaker: Aly Warr \nGraphics: Iryna Stryapunina
