eBook: Epigenetics of COVID-19

COVID-19 has been one of the biggest public health issues in recent history and has changed the daily lives of almost everyone on the planet. Many researchers, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies have been working around the clock since the novel coronavirus outbreak started to try to develop new tools to test for and treat the infection.

The research projects studying SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 have progressed rapidly to identify and characterize the SARS-CoV-2 virus, determine how it enters the cells, and which mechanisms can be targeted to combat its effects. In this eBook, we highlight studies which include and focus on the Epigenetic aspects of both COVID-19 disease, it’s mechanisms, long-term effects, and approaches to further understand and be prepared for other, similar outbreaks in the future.
