We caught up with Adam Young (Franklin Group) to hear how he refocused work using viruses as ‘tools’ to investigate the interaction between stem cells and immune cells in the brain.

Now, his team are exploring similarities between the coronavirus, and the measles, mumps and rubella viruses and their long-standing vaccines. Early results from the team's Covid-19 research are available in a MedRxiv preprint at https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.10.20...

#ResponsiveResearch is a new online series of short personal interviews with Cambridge Stem Cell Institute researchers exploring how they are adapting their research to investigate Covid-19.
