A diverse population of the SARS-CoV-2 virus can exist inside of a single person who is infected with COVID-19. Dr. Todd Treangen explains how his background in analyzing microbial genomes set him up to investigate this "hidden" diversity. He also discusses related work in co-developing a COVID-19 diagnostic test and co-founding and co-leading the COV-IRT organization.
