Health: as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, as it may have limited value for implementation. Health may be defined as the ability to adapt and manage physical, mental and social challenges throughout life.

With over 500 million COVID-19 cases and more than 6 million deaths, the COVID-19 pandemic remains a global health threat maintained by the impact of a changing virus. Emerging SARS-CoV-2 va...
The IHME COVID-19 Projection Model has been two years in the making, and this talk will share details on how it works and what it says about our current point in the COVID pandemic as well a...
The Sarbecoviruses encodes a large panel of highly heterogeneous, but related zoonotic, epidemic and pandemic coronaviruses that include SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV2, which have been associated wit...
The need for next-generation, broadly protective coronavirus vaccines is underscored by the accelerated pace at which human coronaviruses have been emerging, the evolution of the current pan...
During the first year of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, international monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA revealed that the virus accumulated roughly 2 mutations per month. Nonetheless, one nonsy...
This presentation will focus on the near- and medium-term future of COVID. COVID will become endemic, but what does this really mean? How will COVID affect longevity in the United States? Wh...
Diagnostics have never been more important or visible on the world stage as they are today in the midst of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Mara will speak about how COVID diagnostics have been...

While early genetic diagnosis can guide critical care management, the turnaround time for whole genome based diagnostic testing is months. Recent programs in neonatal populations have reduce...
Pathogen detection and surveillance have become a high priority in both healthcare and environmental settings for the safety of patients and the general public. The COVID-19 pandemic highlig...
Sex differences play an important role in development and progression of many diseases, and understanding how a disease differs between the sexes is essential for the advancement of preventi...
The CYP2D6 enzyme metabolizes approximately 25% of commonly used pharmaceuticals and is of intense pharmacogenetic interest. Polymorphisms in CYP2D6 can alter an individual’s response...
The human genome encodes 25,000 genes. But the biological complexity inherent in polygenic traits is a clear sign that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Genes, gene products, a...
