Fighting the coronavirus has changed the way the international scientific community works together and intensified collaboration. Dr. Andrea Thorn leads an international research group at Universität Hamburg that is improving molecular models from across the world to enable the development of pharmaceuticals. The May issue of the Nature Structural & Molecular Biology journal reports on the team's work. To develop vaccines and new medications for the coronavirus, one must first decipher how it works. This is a task occupying thousands of researchers across the globe.
