Abstract
Researchers and healthcare professionals are working tirelessly to counteract the newly emerged SARS-COV2 pandemic. Advancements in research today are slowly putting us in a better position to fully understand and deal with this virus. There is relatively a small amount known about this virus because it is a new variation in its family of viruses (Coronaviridae), and thus there is much more to learn. Our poster explores the inner workings behind the scenes that our researchers and healthcare professionals interact with in order to understand the virus and devise treatments going forward. Some of the topics include the detection of SARS-COV2 by using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) testing as well as insight into the science behind viral mRNA replication. The purpose of this poster is to strengthen the public’s understanding of this newly emerged virus and provide up-to-date information on the validation of testing as knowledge of the virus is better comprehended.
