COVID-19 & THE IMMUNE SYSTEM | An interview with Akiko Iwasaki, PhD, Professor at Yale

The COVID-19 pandemic has ravaged the world… but why do some people do fine when they are infected, and other people end up dying? How does your immune system react to COVID-19? Is it possible that different people will have different immunity to a COVID vaccine than others? Akiko Iwasaki, a scientist and Professor of Immunobiology and Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology at Yale, will discuss how her lab went from studying cancer viruses to how the immune system reacts to the coronavirus during this pandemic.
