Sars-CoV-2 genomic surveillance using rapid point of care Covid-19 antigen tests at public test sites in California
California’s SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program (California COVIDNet) developed whole genomic sequencing (WGS) capability from positive COVID-19 antigen tests to maintain genomic surveillance from public test sites. Over 4-months, COVIDNet sourced specimens from positive COVID-19 antigen tests from 142 California public test sites in 43 counties. Successful WGS was defined as at least 83% reference coverage with a minimum 20x genomic read de…
Computational Thinking for Science
The role of computation in science is ever‐expanding and is enabling scientists to investigate complex phenomena in more powerful ways and tackle previously intractable problems. The growing role of computation has prompted calls to integrate computational thinking (CT) into science instruction in order to more authentically mirror contemporary science practice and to support inclusive engagement in science pathways. In this multimethods study, w…
Implementation of California Covidnet – a multi-sector collaboration for statewide Sars-CoV-2 genomic surveillance
Introduction: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic represented a formidable scientific and technological challenge to public health due to its rapid spread and evolution. To meet these challenges and to characterize the virus over time, the State of California established the California SARS-CoV-2 Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) Initiative, or "California COVIDNet". This initiative constituted an unprecedented multi-sector collaborative effort to achieve large-…
Enacting ambitious engineering curriculum in science classrooms
The United States’ Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) elevate engineering design to the same stature as scientific inquiry, calling on science teachers to engage students in engineering practices to solve real-world problems. In response, researchers and curriculum developers designed and studied Virtual Engineering Internships (VEIs) to engage students in engineering and science practices outlined by the NGSS, and alleviate some of the log…
