Prof. Scheibenbogen - Interview Series - eviltoast

A great new interview series with Prof. Scheibenbogen from Charité in Berlin

Part 1:

https://youtu.be/q1D1_5-pXRA

In this film we talk about the two types of Long Covid that were recognised in her paper that was published in Nature Communications, and just how big a role auto-immunity might play in driving the condition.

The paper discussed in the video: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-022-32507-6

Prof Scheibenbogen’s most recent scientific paper: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2023.1196721/full

Part 2:

In this film we ask Professor Scheibenbogen about her thoughts on viral persistence, and how you’d go about treating auto-immunity in the context of ME/CFS and Long Covid.

In this film we talk about how long it might be before we can expect to see effective treatments getting through phase 2 and phase 3 trials, and why it is that getting this research done takes so long.
