The Office of Research, Innovation and Impact (RII) has formed a COVID-19 Research Coordination Group interested in pursuing research initiatives on coronavirus and/or assisting with state and local community efforts to prevent, contain and/or surveil COVID-19. This initiative will be spearheaded by Dr. Jeff Burgess, professor and associate dean for research in the Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health, and the group will teleconference Thursdays at 1pm.
