Efforts are in underway to speed up the process on COVID-19 research for UF Health researchers to evaluate a drug treatment for coronavirus.
Researchers and clinicians continue to search for ways to alleviate the suffering of patients and the demands on crowded hospitals.
Researchers at the UF Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering receive a grant from the National Science Foundation to study COVID-19 modeling, staffing and PPE.
UF researchers Chang-Yu Wu, an engineer, and John Lednicky, a virologist, teamed up a decade ago to solve long-standing challenges in how air samples are collected and tested for viruses.
As a national study ramps up at University of Florida Health and other sites around the country to test whether...
A UF virologist assisted a team of medical researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City with interpreting microscopic images of tissue samples from COVID-19 victims.
In a project with the UF Informatics Institute SEED Fund, the Departments of UF Sociology and UF Linguistics will study different topics on COVID-19.
John Lednicky's past decades of inquiry into coronaviruses have positioned him as one of UF’s go-to experts on the coronavirus.
The technique uses a harmless virus to help fight a harmful virus. In this case, the harmless virus is used to package and deliver a gene from SARS-CoV-2, the strain of coronavirus that causes COVID-19. The gene therapy vaccine can’t replicate on its own but is potent enough to trigger a beneficial, antivirus response from the immune system.
Patients with a vitamin D deficiency were four times more likely to be COVID-19 positive than those with a sufficient amount of the crucial vitamin.
University of Florida virus experts are gathering genomic sequences from coronaviruses around the world to drive artificial intelligence (AI) research that could predict future spread and outbreaks of this and other strains.
