Abhishek Goel, Co-founder and CEO of CACTUS, spoke on the motivation behind this platform: “At this time, when we are facing a global pandemic, we need all hands on deck. Across the world, researchers in many disciplines are working hard to find solutions that will shepherd the world out of this crisis: epidemiologists, virologists, immunologists, biostatisticians, emergency and internal medicine specialists, pulmonologists, public health researchers, pharmacologists, pathology researchers, geneticists, cell biologists, social scientists…the list goes on. Yet, for the first time,  AI-powered we are faced with a crisis that necessitates researchers who normally work in siloed disciplines to tap into each other’s expertise and adopt a multidisciplinary approach. And we want to help them do this.”

The COVID-19 platform will help researchers from various disciplines easily access and digest this information, supported by expert opinion. The platform collates research and datasets from different countries, irrespective of the language in which they were published; allows researchers to ask questions and pose hypotheses to other researchers; and curates expert-driven editorial content that simplifies and explains the latest research. Going forward, the platform will allow webinars, podcasts, and a crowdfunding platform for research.

Goel adds, “Imagine the power of a platform where researchers across disciplines are coming together to learn from each other and find solutions to the pandemic collaboratively.”

Apart from serving researchers working on COVID-19, the new site by CACTUS will provide policymakers, governments, and lay people access to evidence-based answers to questions around COVID-19. There will also be an opportunity for interested members of the public to help by suggesting answers to problems that researchers and practitioners are struggling with.
