Virus detection and antibody testing for Covid-19 – insight into Swedish research labs and future predictions

The coronavirus pandemic is the biggest crisis of our time. Researchers and professors at laboratories in Sweden wasted no time getting involved in the hard work of limiting the spread of the virus. How have they been doing this? What are their experiences so far? What lessons will we take with us going forward? Four professors share what they have learnt and their predictions for the future.

Welcome to a webinar at the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences Biotechnology division. Watch the live stream above (the image will turn into a player when it is time for the webinar to start). Send your questions to the speakers through Menti.
