Implementation of ideas Long COVID challenge in full swing

8 jun 2023

In October 2022, more than 400 students of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences were challenged with the Long COVID challenge. The goal: to take research into the causes of Long-COVID a step further. At the time – and still today – there was insufficient biomedical research into the causes of Long COVID. The best idea is now being implemented in the Bachelor Research Hub of UMC Utrecht by sixteen students. Watch the video about the challenge and watch the item about it in the Executive Board webinar update of 8 June.
