Host Genomics and COVID-19: Implications for Clinical and Public Health Practice Webinar

Thursday, October 6 | 11 am-12 pm ET

This seminar will review our emerging knowledge of the role of host genomic factors in the susceptibility and outcomes of COVID-19 infection, response to vaccines and treatments as well as long-term sequels of the disease. Speakers Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D. and Jacques Fellay, M.D., Ph.D. will discuss implications of such knowledge for clinical and public health practice and how this information could be used in the control of the pandemic, and more generally in the control of infectious diseases.
