COVID-19 & Other Viral Diseases: Where Do They Come From? How Can We Fight Them?
April 2, 3:00PM EDT
High interest discussions to take back to your virtual classrooms
Join scientist, educator and author Joseph Levine in an engaging webinar on COVID-19 this Thursday, April 2nd at 3:00 pm EDT. SARS-CoV-2 is the newest viral threat to humanity, following HIV, SARS, MERS, and flu strains like the one that caused the 1918 pandemic. Why are some viruses so deadly? How do new ones arise and spread? Can we draw from experience to defeat this one? This webinar, ideal for online teaching, puts coronaviruses in context, invoking NGSS CCC’s and DCI’s in genetics, ecology, evolution, and immunology.
Joe Levine is the co-author of Pearson's Miller & Levine Biology. If you cannot attend, we will post a recording on http://now.pearsonschool.com/e/101482/2020-03-30/98h8tj/211868685?h=sFPUhZ5AeVFx_Rr2tnS1xGNSLdN0_x7dkS4yYX6_JrQcom/
