The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) has announced $750,000 in funding to support five projects studying how COVID-19 progresses in patients at the level of individual cells and tissues. This will help support the HCA-COVID-19 effort.

These projects will create single-cell datasets from donors infected by SARS-CoV2 and provide insights into how the virus infects humans, which cell types are involved, and how the disease progresses.
