@MakedaLRobinson She is presenting her three stages during the COVID-19 pandemic that led her to begin studying what were the factors that governed transmission and severity of disease
Hypothesis: early innate immune responses are crucial for the initial response to SARS-CoV-2 and immature myeloid cell subsets can play a role in disease severity
She'll be applying for faculty positions in the future - universities be on the lookout for this awesome physician scientist!
