COVID-19 Literature Reviews

A group of post-docs and DPhil students in the Medical Sciences Division are voluntarily reviewing some of the immunology-focussed COVID-19 literature, particularly pre-prints. Recently, we have teamed up with Cardiff University who have been running a similar initiative to bring even more reviews to you. Thanks to the Kennedy Institute for Rheumatology Journal Club who have organised this. Disclaimer: all views are our own!
