Masters student Esther Bankole will introduce this session by telling us what immunology is and why it is important. Danny Altmann, Professor of Immunology at Imperial, will then tell us about the immunological response to COVID-19. Danny’s lab studies the immunological response to infectious diseases in a global health setting, for example studying immunity to Zika virus during the Brazilian outbreak. During this pandemic he has been delivering International webinars for the scientific community and providing witness evidence to the Parliamentary Science and Technology Committee and the House of Lords Committee.
