Three PhD students, a genomic epidemiologist studying Ebola virus, a molecular epidemiologist studying Polio virus, and an infectious disease modeller studying anti-microbial resistance dynamics between humans and livestock.

So, what do these three researchers have in common, you might wonder? Well, they all lent their expertise to study the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this episode, we will be learning about how COVID-19 shaped their year in research and learn some interesting facts about epidemiology related to our current pandemic.

As always, tune in, with your morning cuppa, and enjoy.
