Join Vincent Racaniello for Office Hours to answer your questions about viruses - including SARS-CoV-2, Mpox virus, poliovirus, influenza virus, and more - on this livestream on Wednesday 9/2/26 at 8:00 PM eastern US.

Office Hours is the name for my weekly meeting with students in my virology course. With this livestream, I’m opening Office Hours to everyone else.

– Who Am I? –

I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor.

I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this YouTube channel I share videos of my lectures, interviews, opinions, and MicrobeTV podcasts.

New videos are uploaded multiple times a week.

I do not run ads on our work as they are disruptive to learning. We depend on your support.
