Stanford biochemist works with gamers to develop COVID-19 vaccine

But if you’re like me, you’re paying special attention to any and all information about the race to develop a vaccine — a crucial step that will save lives and (hopefully) restore life back to something like pre-pandemic times. Recently, Stanford biochemist Rhiju Das, PhD, joined the global effort to create a safe, widely available vaccine for SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19, with a new project called OpenVaccine.
