This is a collection of research on the coronavirus disease COVID-2019. It is updated automatically for the terms COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, 2019-nCoV. Caution: articles flagged as "preprint" have not yet undergone peer review.
A global health emergency is currently unfolding associated with the novel Coronavirus Disease COVID-19 caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2. Up-to-date information is available from the World Health Organization: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019. This ScienceOpen Collection is automatically updated with the newest research on the SARS-CoV-2 virus and all aspects of the Coronavirus Disease COVID-19. The interim nomenclature 2019-nCoV is also used in many early assessments. To speed up the research cycle, many researchers publish their preliminary results on preprint servers. These articles have not yet officially undergone peer review and are flagged on ScienceOpen as "preprint".
ScienceOpen endorses the Wellcome Trust Statement on sharing research data and findings relevant to the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak. All authors can add links to their open data sets to their article records on our platform.
