COVID-19 is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Key to SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic development is to unravel the mechanisms driving high infectivity, broad tissue tropism and severe pathology. SARS-CoV-2 is decorated by multiple copies of a glycoprotein, called Spike, which is key to such severe infectivity.

Using cryo-electron microscopy and cloud computing, Dr. Imre Berger has discovered a potentially druggable pocket within the SARS-CoV-2 Spike, which appears to be present in the highly pathogenic coronaviruses that caused previous SARS and MERS outbreaks

Watch this webinar to find out for the first time the structural link between COVID-19 pathology and the virus itself, setting the stage for developing new therapeutic interventions to combat and defeat COVID-19.
