FAS has created an "Ask a Scientist" project, a collaboration with The Governance Lab and National Science Policy Network, to build a database where visitors can get their answers on coronavirus answered by a group of scientists.

Scientists, medical personnel, and other qualified professionals who want to join the international corps of responders answering these questions can email [e-mail]. Interested in the new series?
