On April 27 2022, members of UKCDR’s COVID CIRCLE Researcher Community (CCRC) came together with UK funders to discuss the impact of social sciences research on the COVID-19 pandemic response. The webinar was chaired by Dr Nina Gobat, lead of the WHO COVID-19 Social Science Technical Working Group.
Researchers and funders around the world rely on the COVID-19 Research Project Tracker and associated Living Mapping Review (LMR) to funnel resources where needs are greatest by tracking the latest COVID-19 research trends and gaps. For the first time, the LMR features an analysis of research projects on our Tracker mapped against the pillars and priorities outlined in the UN Research Roadmap for the COVID-19 Recovery.
UKCDR & GloPID-R are excited to announce the launch of the COVID CIRCLE Researcher Platform. This is a public website to facilitate information sharing on COVID-19 research and bring together the global research community working on COVID-19 research, in and for low resource settings.
