Bio-Techne aims to lead on the fight against COVID-19 by supporting SARS-CoV-2 research, to help the scientific community understand its mechanisms of infection and advance the development of effective therapies. Our bioactive cytokines and growth factors, immune cell reagents, and biologics instrumentation are all helping in the quest for therapies against this novel coronavirus.

In this symposium, Bio-Techne researchers will joined by guest speakers to discuss various exciting aspects of COVID-19 research.

• Hear about the COVID-19 mechanisms of infection and the tools available to study it.
• Learn how intestinal organoids can be used to model SARS-CoV-2 infection
of the gut.
• Discover how the immune response against SARS-CoV-2 can be investigated.
