Organizational collaborations between UNC-CH researchers and U.S. or international institutions with five or more shared publications. All UNC-CH units (e.g., health affairs schools, UNC Health, institutes) are combined as single data point in blue.

Research contributing to discoveries associated with COVID-19 has been growing on the UNC campus over the past year. To help increase visibility of this integral research and illustrate the extensive organizational collaborations that help move UNC research forward, a team from University Libraries – Health Sciences Library analyzed the COVID-19 research output of UNC Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) researchers between January 2020 and April 2021.

On April 12, 2021, the MiBio/iBGS Symposium went virtual. This year's theme “Branching Out: The Untapped World of Biological Systems.”

The UNC PEP-MX core has a Refeyn One Mass Photometry instrument that’s now available for use. The Mass Photometer measures minute perturbations in the refractive index of a solution as biomolecules tumble within. Sophisticated software then calculates the masses of the particles that produced those optical differences (Figure 1). Figure 1. Recent experimental data acquired by the mass photometer …
