COVID: A Perspective from a Protein Biochemist

9-10 AM SUNDAY, FEB 13 •  ISSUES CLASS LED BY DERRY MEMBER WALTER A. PATTON, PH.D., DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY, LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE • CLICK TO JOIN • SIMULCAST IN ROOM 7

By now we all recognize the image of a SARS-CoV-2 (or COVID) virus particle. One protein is so critical for all its nastiness. We will take a look at that protein, discuss mutants, and examine the meaning of the word enthalpy. (And why mother nature always has enthalpy on her side and uses it in her favor, for good things and for bad…nature just can’t help herself.) 

NEXT WEEK ON ZOOM:  “An Unconventional God: The Holy Spirit According to Jesus and the Gospels” led by Debbie Hough.
