Tracking the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in an immunocompromised patient
Research conducted at the MRC Biostatistics Unit has captured the process of SARS-CoV-2 evolution, as it happened within a single patient. The research findings, described in a new paper in the journal Nature, have potential importance for how COVID-19 patients are treated and for the management of the pandemic as a whole. The study, a […]
