Christopher Mason from Weill Cornell Medicine discusses his multifaceted approach to the urgent need for testing when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out in early 2020. Chris also discusses finding from a paper that was published in Nature Communications this year, entitled “Shotgun transcriptome, spatial omics, and isothermal profiling of SARS-CoV-2 infection reveals unique host responses, viral diversification, and drug interactions.” (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-21361-7).
