Researchers across disciplines are coming together to understand the coronaVirus (SARS-CoV-2) to help protect our communities. They are using the supercomputer of the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology to not only compare and analyze COVID-19 cases but also to scan billions of environmental samples for traces of SARS-CoV-2. Their work is already available as an open research tool, providing access to all BetacoronaVirus gene clusters, alignments and related data for scientists around the world.
