Natural History of SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Implications for Diagnostics

May 10, 2023
12:00 PM (EDT)
Alexander Viloria Winnett
Graduate Student
UCLA-Caltech

Since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic when diagnostic testing was scarce, over 440 molecular and antigen tests for detecting acute SARS-CoV-2 infection have been authorized by the U.S. FDA. These tests are authorized for use with a variety of specimen types (e.g. nasopharyngeal swabs, anterior nares and midturbinate nasal swabs, oropharyngeal swabs, saliva, etc.), and exhibit a wide range of analytical sensitivities (with Limits of Detection that span 6 orders of magnitude). Through a COVID-19 household transmission study, we generated a biorepository of paired saliva, anterior nares nasal swab, and oropharyngeal swab specimens collected daily from individuals before or at the incidence of naturally acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection. From these specimens, we quantified the SARS-CoV-2 viral load timecourse in each specimen type from each individual. These viral load timecourses were then used to infer the clinical sensitivity of COVID-19 tests throughout the course of infection, depending on the analytical sensitivity and specimen type used for testing. This webinar will discuss the implications of these findings on COVID-19 diagnostic testing strategies, and the interpretation of prior field studies of COVID-19 tests.

ASIP Workshop - ASIP Highlights Session: I Am An ASIP Member and This Is My Science

Date: April 27, 2021

Session Description: As a Society, we cannot escape the identity crisis we have confronted in the past - what is pathology and how do pathologists fit into the basic framework of biomedical science? This is an ongoing challenge that requires our members to educate others regarding the nature of the discipline of experimental pathology and how our research describes and investigates the pathology, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of specific diseases at the molecular, cellular, organ, and organismal level. Overcoming this identity crisis requires effort on the part of each ASIP member and our success will be evident as we continue to attract bright and enthusiastic young investigators into the diverse field of experimental pathobiology.

The American Society for Investigative Pathology presents I Am An ASIP Member and This Is My Science a dynamic and inspiring session featuring ASIP Scientists on the Cutting Edge of Discovery briefly, present their research, accomplishments, career journeys, and service to ASIP. This session highlights the diversity among our membership, and provides trainees, young scientists, pathologists, and the members of the larger scientific community the opportunity to become inspired by Trailblazers in the field of investigative pathology.
