As the world continues dealing with the pandemic, an international team of
computational scientists, medicinal chemists, biochemists, and virologist, led by Texas researchers, are working
to rapidly identify drug like molecules that stop SARS-CoV-2. UTMB’s Stan Watowich is part of the
effort. “It’s a bold, rapid, high-risk, high-reward, initiative to find new starting points for
drugs for COVID-19,” Watowich said.
