Abstract

The team led by Professor Alexandar Tzankov (USB & University of Basel) aims to bring together long-standing expertise in autopsy, pathology, immunology and neurology in Basel to investigate the interactions of SARS-CoV-2 with tissues and organs derived from deceased patients. The project will contribute valuable insights into the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and into the future design of medical interventions for this disease.
