The Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine will host a forum titled “COVID-19 Collaboration: Shared Hospital and Public Health Efforts to Care for Greater Cleveland” ahead of the first presidential debate. The forum will be held Tuesday, Sept. 22, at 9 a.m. EDT.
It will cover the discovery and innovation around COVID-19 in Cleveland, including how our medical centers—Cleveland Clinic Foundation, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, MetroHealth System, and Cleveland VA Medical Center—mobilized, the value of the National Institutes of Health and other public and private investments that have enabled such work, the incredible speed with which our academic centers pivoted toward these efforts, and specific examples of how COVID-19 research has led to breakthroughs.
