COVID-19, Biomedical Insights into an Evolving Epidemic (One Year Later)

• Programme Dates: 6 January – 10 February 2021
• Price: SGD$3,150 (Subsidies & Scholarships available)

In July 2020, NUS Medicine launched a biomedical science educational series on COVID-19 based on the urgent need to carefully examine and discuss on-going basic research on this devastating pandemic. Based on feedback and requests, we have decided to organize a follow-up course addressing the latest developments. As a continuation of the initial lectures, the course Biomedical Insights into an Evolving Epidemic (BIEE2), will continue to examine in-depth the biology of the virus and on-going pandemic.

The aim of this short course is to provide a comprehensive overview of diverse on-going biomedical research on COVID-19 and its etiological agent, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), including analysis of leading vaccine and therapeutic efforts, pathophysiology and clinical management addressing the three critical aspects of infection control – Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment.

This course will provide current updated insight into 
epidemiology of the outbreak, prediction models, virus genetics, structure and biology, pathophysiology, immunology, therapies (drug and antibody-based), and vaccine development.
