ABC News—A new variant of SARS-CoV-2, dubbed Omicron, is causing concern around the world. Gladstone President Deepak Srivastava explains that some of the variant’s 50 mutations may have arisen when an individual who was already immunocompromised became infected with the virus. Senior Investigator Nevan Krogan describes how his group is investigating whether the new mutations will change the ability of the virus to enter cells and cause disease.
