A discussion about current trends with Dr. Joe Gerald, a member of the University of Arizona COVID-19 modeling team and an associate professor of public health policy and management at the Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health.

For 15 years, the Student Aid for Field Epidemiology Response (SAFER) program at the UArizona Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health, has trained students to investigate public health crises. Team members used to track local outbreaks of foodborne illnesses and monitor flu cases. Now they’re tackling a pandemic that has killed 1.5 million people across the globe. Epidemiologist Erika Austhof and program coordinators Kylie Boyd and Alexandra Shilen are interviewed.

UArizona Health Sciences researchers have created a five-module chimeric antigen receptor T cell that is showing early potential to fight Type 1 diabetes.

University of Arizona Health Sciences immunobiologists have created a chimeric antigen receptor T cell that is showing early potential to fight Type 1 diabetes.

A new study has found that a novel T cell genetically engineered by University of Arizona Health Sciences researchers is able to target and attack pathogenic T cells that cause Type 1 diabetes, which could lead to new immunotherapy treatments.

If you’re leaving the house often, you should look for a lip balm with some sun protection (SPF 15 if you won’t be outside for long; SPF 30 if you’re headed to the beach). Lisa Quale, senior health educator at the Skin Cancer Institute at the University of Arizona Cancer Center reminds readers to reapply often when you’re outside because sunscreen wears off very quickly from the lips.

Experts from the COVID-19 modeling team at the University of Arizona are calling for a shelter-in-place order, mask mandate and emergency economic relief measures statewide as coronavirus metrics increase to alarming levels. Dr. Joe Gerald, a professor at University of Arizona Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health, who creates weekly coronavirus epidemiology reports based on ADHS data, also called for further COVID-19 mitigation tactics as his latest report shows an alarming spread of the virus throughout the state.
