Weekly round-up #212
VALIDATE Seminar Archive
We thought we would remind you of the rather extensive archive of seminar videos you can watch on the VALIDATE Seminar page. We have covered all of the focus pathogens from many different perspectives in talks given by VALIDATE members from around the world. You can watch many of our seminars on YouTube and members can request access to restricted videos from the webpage.
