Zoonotic Diseases & SARS-CoV-2 #33

Open rando2 opened 4 years ago

rando2 commented 4 years ago

There seem to be several people in the introductions thread (#17 ) who are interested in zoonotic diseases, a topic that is currently missing from the introduction section outline.

I wanted to encourage a discussion of what you (and anyone else who is interested!) think are the most important elements of this topic to include in the introduction to help guide an understanding of the virus towards an understanding of possible diagnostics/therapeutics.

Please feel free either to discuss here or to propose modifications to the outline document -- here are some directions.

Also, feel more than welcome to start adding sentences/paragraphs if you feel inspired to write!

Finally, let me know if there are other fields to tag to help bring other relevant experts into this conversation (I'm putting virology for now)

Hello I wanna be of help

rando2 commented 4 years ago

Hi @nuhnode, that would be wonderful! We don't have a lot of content fleshed out yet, but there are several papers that need review -- e.g., #41 #91 #106 #107 If you would want to either a) submit summaries of these in the issues linked, or b) start drafting a section of the manuscript (presumably in the background section?), that would be amazing! I would be very happy to help wherever I can.
