The NIHR BioResource is delighted to be taking part in this year’s new, interdisciplinary Cambridge Festival. We’ll be hosting an online talk called Healthcare worker COVID follow up, followed by a live Q&A, with researcher Dr Daniel Cooper and some of our own research nurses.
But also look out for events listed below from our NIHR partners based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, where researchers talk about their COVID-19 research – all of which we have supported, by providing access to our unique resource of blood and saliva samples from thousands of volunteers.
This resource is helping researchers and clinicians from all over the country in their vital research into COVID-19. You can find out more about some of this research (and our role in it) in this year’s Cambridge Festival:
- Every drop counts: blood donors of the future
