The role of aberrant cytokine activity in the host immune response to COVID-19

In this webinar, Bio-Rad’s Kelly King, Brad VanderWielen, and Kenneth Oh will discuss the early research and nascent hypotheses regarding the pathophysiology of COVID 19 through evaluation of cytokine and chemokine profiles, the role of chronic inflammation in comorbidities, and the arc of immune resolution of historical virulent pathogens, such as SARS and MERS.

Key learning objectives:

• Learn about the effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines on the immune response
• Discover the pathophysiology of the cytokine storm in COVID-19 patients
• Explore the pre-existing conditions that increase disease severity
