WHAT: From the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, leading scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have been using the Lab’s state-of-the-art facilities and collaborating with research teams from around the world to deliver analysis and share discoveries that are significantly contributing to the global fight against COVID-19.
Hear firsthand from three of the Lab’s scientific leaders who are conducting critical research to develop treatments and a vaccine; using supercomputers to narrow down the potential treatments that can be tested in a lab; and creating epidemiological models that can inform civic leaders as they determine how and when to revise public health policies and interventions.
