'Most COVID Studies Focus on Destroying the Virus. We're Trying a Different Approach'

Hi Jiri, what have you been doing in Israel?

You pronounced it right!: “Yiri.” It’s a hard name in Hebrew, people are always calling me “Jerry.” I’m doing a postdoc in biochemistry at the Weizmann Institute. Now I’m heading home to the Czech Republic to visit my family, and then I’ll come back here to continue my work. The truth is that I’m working on a project that’s related to the coronavirus.
