Dr. Shannon Stott is leading a team using a novel microfluidics approach to identify SARS-CoV-2. A ‘Herringbone’ chip is coated with ACE-2, to pull out SARS-CoV-2 from blood: in acute COVID, “when we looked at basic plasma testing, we saw that no virus was found… but those same samples... show more

2/ PolyBio is supporting work to analyze Long COVID blood samples with the novel microfluidic technology that isolates rare, intact SARS-CoV-2 viral particles from complex biofluids. If viral particles are identified, the technology could be used in clinical trials to identify SARS-CoV-2 reservoirs in Long COVID blood.

3/ Dr. Stott’s presentation was a part of the PolyBio Spring 2025 Symposium, available here:

Very interesting—I read early research that couldn't find viable SARS2 virions in donated blood—but it has to get in blood to infect tissues throughout the body. So does SARS2 die quickly in blood, or what is going on?

Of course it's a microchip. Does AI also help?

Wow this is huge if validated and implemented. 🤙🏻

👏👏👏

Very honored to have given this Rising Star interview, where I could talk a bit about myself, my research, my passion for microscopy, and my dream to find a cure for #LongCovid one day 🥹 Link for the full interview: Press release:

It's been nearly 3 months and I'm still 90-95% recovered. In the past I've felt 90% recovered, but never for this long. I still have some small symptoms nearly every day, but they don't meaningfully impact my life. I even got to test out the heat intolerance and seemed to do OK

A new study suggests that exercise doesn’t clear microclots in people with Long COVID—it just fragments them into smaller ones. These smaller clots are linked to increased inflammation and impaired oxygen transport, which may help explain post-exertional malaise (PEM) and post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE)—a worsening of symptoms after even mild physical or mental effort. Researchers observed these microclot and inflammatory changes even after submaximal exertion, highlighting the need for caution when recommending exercise-based therapies.
