CBA COVID-19 response

April 4, 2020

We hope that you and your friends/family/colleagues are safe. To help the healthy stay that way, and to help care for those who are not, we've been busy running this effort:

https://gitlab.cba.mit.edu/pub/coronavirus
https://gitlab.cba.mit.edu/pub/coronavirus/tracking
https://gitlab.cba.mit.edu/pub/coronavirus/tracking/issues

for prototyping coronavirus responses with CBA's tools at MIT, aided by a great medical/research/industry/govt/NGO group advising; here's a first joint project from that pipeline:

And we're participating in this project:

https://gitlab.fabcloud.org/pub/project/coronavirus
https://gitlab.fabcloud.org/pub/project/coronavirus/tracking
https://gitlab.fabcloud.org/pub/project/coronavirus/tracking/issues

for developing and deploying responses globally across the fab lab network. Collaborations and contributions of all kinds for these critical activities are welcome.

Around this core work on campus, our research programs are continuing remotely; we'll be in touch to schedule check-ins with external participants in these, and look forward to sharing a number of exciting updates as the urgency of the immediate response subsides.
