COVID-19 Coronavirus

A team of UArizona scientists is studying whether or not certain copper-based chemical compounds could potentially stop the virus that causes COVID-19 dead in its tracks.

As a precautionary measure, UArizona doctoral students are now defending their dissertations fully online. Rebecca Beadling, a PhD candidate in geosciences, is one such student.

From podiums and podcasts to Tweets and TikTok videos, everyone is talking about COVID-19, but not everyone is using the same words to mean the same things.

Americans are having contentious conversations about whether or not to stay home. We asked UArizona social psychologist Daniel Sullivan what our decisions, disagreements, and judgments of each other during the pandemic reveal about human nature.

During the COVID-19 outbreak, staying home has become a question of morality. We asked UArizona medical ethicist Laura Howard what our behavior during the pandemic says about the complexity of human nature.

Isolation is known to have a negative impact on human health and wellness. Dogs, one UArizona expert says, may provide welcome emotional support during self-quarantine periods in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.

Scott Cederburg, associate professor of finance at the University of Arizona, explains the state of the economy—and what’s to come—as industries, investors, and consumers across the globe respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With all courses being taught fully online for the remainder of the semester, some faculty members are preparing for a first-time venture. One assistant professor quickly came up with a plan to give his colleagues a virtual hand.
