Skoltech and Skolkovo International Gymnasium will be hosting several online lectures on biology.

On March 27th at 4 pm Moscow time Skoltech biologist Evgeniya Lazareva will lead a fascinating lecture about today’s reality, called “Viruses: Life of the Non-living”.

COVID-19 has changed our lives. Listeners will learn about viruses, how they affect our bodies and what information they carry. At the same time, one cannot call a virus “alive”, because it cannot exist outside of an organism. It carries information like a flash drive. So, are all viruses bad or are there any good ones?

After the lecture, listeners will be able to ask questions and arm themselves with knowledge about today’s most talked-about viruses. The lecture is open to everyone, but registration is required. Tune in here: https://events.webinar.ru/13328871/3624574
