SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is new and mysterious, which presents more questions than answers. UArizona researchers are applying their expertise to answering some of those questions. Research led by
 Antibodies Shown to Provide Long-term Immunity Against COVID-19Using a highly accurate test they developed, University of Arizona Health Sciences researchers have shown that antibodies persist for months after infection. |
Pain Relief Caused by SARS-CoV-2 Infection May Help Explain COVID-19 SpreadResearch shows SARS-CoV-2 promotes pain relief through the receptor neuropilin-1, which gives scientists a new target for non-opioid pain therapeutics and offers one possible explanation for the unrelenting spread of COVID-19.  |
 Immunobiologists Develop Antibody Test for COVID-19UArizona Health Sciences researchers aim to use antibody testing to fight the virus that causes COVID-19 and answer lingering questions about the virus. |
UArizona Researchers Pivot to Tackle COVID-19Researchers are using financial support from rapid-turnaround seed grants supplied through the BIO5 Institute and state funding to study COVID-19.  |
 Arizona COVID-19 Genomics Union to Track CoronavirusGenomic sequencing will track the SARS-CoV-2 virus, provide critical data for global biomedical researchers and give Arizona an edge in responding to the pandemic. |
Statewide Study to Increase Understanding of Susceptibility to COVID-19 and Recovery ComplicationsResearchers are enrolling Arizona residents into a long-term study to better understand how COVID-19 affects an individual’s health and well-being.  |
