Zonsezi zinachitika mwachangu kwambiri. Munali mu Ogasiti ku Ann Arbor, ndipo Ariangela Kozik, Ph.D., anali kunyumba akusanthula zambiri zamatenda omwe ali m'mapapo a odwala mphumu (labu yake yaku University of Michigan idatsekedwa popeza vuto la COVID-19 lidatseka sukuluyi). Pakadali pano, Kozik anali atawona njira zodziwitsa asayansi akuda m'magulu osiyanasiyana.

"Tiyeneradi kukhala ndi gulu lofananalo la Black in Microbiology," adauza mnzake komanso katswiri wazachipatala Kishana Taylor, Ph.D., yemwe akuchita kafukufuku wa COVID ku Carnegie Mellon University. Amayembekezera kukonza cholumikizira: "Pa nthawiyo, tinali tikuwona kale kuti COVID imakhudza anthu ochepa, koma akatswiri omwe timamva kuchokera ku nkhani komanso pa intaneti anali azungu komanso amuna," akutero Kozik.

Osangokhala chogwirizira cha Twitter (@BlackInMicro) ndi fomu ya Google yolembetsa, adatumiza kuyitana aliyense amene akufuna kuthandiza kukonza sabata yodziwitsa. Iye anati: “Kwa milungu isanu ndi itatu yotsatira, tinakhala ndi okonza 30 ndi odzipereka,” akutero. Chakumapeto kwa Seputembala, adachita msonkhano wamlungu umodzi wokhala ndi anthu opitilira 3,600 ochokera padziko lonse lapansi.

Ilo linali lingaliro lomwe linalimbikitsa Kozik ndi Taylor paulendo wawo. "Chimodzi mwazinthu zazikulu zomwe zachitika pamwambowu ndikuti tidazindikira kuti pakufunika kwakukulu kuti timange anthu ammudzi pakati pa akatswiri ena akuda akuda," akutero Kozik. Akufufuza tizilombo toyambitsa matenda timene timakhala m’mapapu athu komanso mmene timakhudzira zinthu monga mphumu. Ndi ngodya yodziwika bwino ya microbiome ya thupi koma imatha kukhala ndi zotsatirapo zazikulu pambuyo pa mliri, akutero. "COVID ndi matenda omwe amalowa ndikudutsa," akutero Kozik. "Kodi gulu lonse la tizilombo toyambitsa matenda likuchita chiyani izi zikachitika?"

Cholinga cha Kozik ndikukulitsa kuwonekera kwa asayansi akuda komanso kufunikira kofufuza wamba. "Kwa anthu, chimodzi mwazomwe zachitika pamavuto onsewa ndikuti tiyenera kuyika ndalama zambiri pakufufuza ndi chitukuko cha zachilengedwe," akutero.

Chiyambireni msonkhano, Kozik ndi Taylor akhala akusintha Black mu Microbiology kukhala gulu komanso malo opangira asayansi ngati iwo. "Malingaliro ochokera kwa omwe adatikonzera komanso omwe adachita nawo mwambowu anali akuti," Ndikumva ngati ndili ndi nyumba yasayansi tsopano, "akutero Kozik. "Tikuyembekeza kuti kwa m'badwo wotsatira, titha kunena kuti," Inde, muli nawo pano. "
