How Science Can Shape Policy and Prepare Us for What’s Next: An Interview with Dr. Gonzalo Moratorio

Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine

A few years after the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re still uncovering lessons about how science, communities, and governments can work together to tackle global health challenges. Today, we are joined by Dr. Gonzalo Moratorio, Head of the Experimental Evolution of Viruses Lab at the Institut Pasteur de Montevideo and Associate Professor at the University of the Republic, Uruguay, for a chat about keeping the conversation open between academia and the public, how scientists can shape policymaking, and what the next pandemic might look like.
