http://earth2-covid.ucsd.edu/Specifically, we are looking to solve two different groups of problems:
CLINICAL SUPPORT: to address clinical needs/issues/questions posed by our clinical front line, we need teams of UCSD students, staff and faculty who are needed to help from home. We hope to get rapid responses back to the clinicians as quickly as possible.
--> If you are willing to be part of this rapid response team, either because you are a clinician, medical student, resident, or program coordinator with IRB and clinical trials experience, or a translator who can scan the global news, post your name, degrees, and skills below.
ENGINEERING/MATERIALS SUPPORT to address material needs/questions posed by our clinical front line and others we are looking for UCSD students, staff and faculty to research and innovate solutions from home. These are questions addressing PPE, equipment, disinfectant, and many others.
If you are willing to access the Slack platform to browse the issues and contribute to the postings of potential solutions from your own expertise or from the global literature post your name, degrees, and skills below.
