Covid-19 Research Databases
If you are doing COVID-19 research, much of the information has not yet gone through peer-review, because peer-review takes a long time. You can find pre-prints (basically, drafts of studies that will eventually get peer-reviewed) in the arXiv databases.
- arXiv.org -- math, physics, etc.
- medRxiv.org -- health sciences
- bioRxiv -- biology
NOTE: Dr. Ananda-Owens has approved pre-print articles for Covid-19 research ONLY.
