Abstract

Long COVID is a multifaceted condition and represents a significant health concern. Correlations have been made in attempts to understand its causes, but molecular mechanisms remain unknown. This project will utilise my unique mouse models of COVID-19 for a detailed interrogation of long-term disease outcomes, focusing on understanding the role and regulation of chronic inflammation in long COVID. My model and discoveries will provide rationale and a platform for testing future therapies.
