Abstract:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

To rapidly characterize the virological properties of emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants, I established the Genotype to Phenotype Japan (G2P-Japan) Consortium. Working alongside my colleagues in G2P-Japan, we have analyzed and identified key virological features of these variants. In this talk, I will provide a brief overview of our consortium\u2019s research activities and explore opportunities for international collaboration to address future outbreaks and pandemics.<\/span><\/p>\n
