Alex Chavez and Rodney Rothstein: Multiplexed antiviral drug discovery

Drs Chavez and Rothstein are collaborating to find a broad acting drug that can be applicable to many corona viruses, which will be useful if there is another outbreak of a corona virus.

Typically, drug discovery is applied to a single cell line/protein target and they are using a yeast screening model ,with DNA barcoding, to look at the effect that various drugs have on many viral proteases, including the 3CL, at one time.
