COVID-19 Research

A view of our labs response to the pandemic

Within KMi we have been shocked and saddened by the devastating impact the global pandemic is having and like many wish to do what we can to help. To this end we have mobilised our knowledge and media research and innovation expertise, to support the Open University's collective response to the Coronavirus pandemic. Our academics are, for example, tracking the extent of false information about the virus so that it can be brought to the attention of policymakers and have developed the world's first privacy-preserving verifiable digital COVID-19 vaccination/antibody test certificate.
