Laurene Tetard and Xiaohu Xia of UCF were selected to join the Research Corporation for Science Advancement as research fellows to mitigate threats of zoonotic diseases. The possible animal origin of COVID-19 calls for further research and preparation for diseases that could emerge in the future.
“Nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy provides the spatial resolution and the sensitivity to detect such small systems and study how they evolve. Participating in this initiative could help in advancing the development of new tools that are better suited for problems related to zoonotic threats. I’m very excited about taking part in these conversations,” said Tetard.
