DESCRIPTION:Nicole and colleagues have recently developed a diagnostic pla
 tform based on fluorescent sample labelling\, optical detection\, and mach
 ine learning classification of viruses. Results can be obtained within a c
 ouple of minutes and we have been able to differentiate SARS-CoV-2 from ne
 gative clinical samples\, as well as from other common respiratory pathoge
 ns such as influenza and seasonal human coronaviruses\, with high accuracy
 .\n\nNicole Robb is an Assistant Professor at the University of Warwick Me
 dical School\, a visiting lecturer at the University of Oxford Physics Dep
 artment and a Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Fellow. Her current research i
 nterests include using biophysical techniques to study viral replication a
 nd development of rapid pathogen diagnostics. She is co-founder of a spino
 ut company that is working on rapid viral testing and is PhD Course Direct
 or of the University of Warwick’s Institute for Global Pandemic Planning
  (IGPP).\nSpeakers:\nDr Nicole Robb (University of Warwick)
