Virology@PSU has been bringing virus researchers together on campus since 2014. Virology@PSU meets on the first Friday of each month, with 2 short talks from trainees or new faculty who are doing research involving viruses. Anyone at PSU interested in viruses is welcome to join in. Virology@PSU aims to foster a community for researchers to discuss & get feedback about their work with viruses. Virus-related research at PSU includes everything from molecules to microbiomes, and epidemiology to ecosystems.
