- 00:00Hello, my name is Akiko Yasaki.
- 00:04I'm a professor of immunobiology at the
- 00:08Yale University School of Medicine.
- 00:11It's really great to meet you,
- 00:12and welcome to the Yale Lesson Study.
- 00:16Yellison study is very important
- 00:18because we are going to be linking your
- 00:21symptoms and your health records to
- 00:24the biological parameters that we will
- 00:27be measuring from the participants.
- 00:29So the idea is
- 00:31to enable what different symptoms may
- 00:33be linked to different biological
- 00:36features that we'll be measuring,
- 00:38which includes variety of parameters related
- 00:41to the immune system as well as Physiology.
- 00:45And this type of analysis will enable
- 00:48us to understand the underlying
- 00:50pathogenesis of long COVID and the
- 00:53possible treatment that we can come up
- 00:55with together to improve the lives of
- 00:58people who are suffering from long COVID
- 01:01as well as post vaccine health issues.
- 01:05So I really encourage you all to
- 01:07fill out the symptom surveys and the
- 01:10health surveys from the lesson study
- 01:12and to link your medical records
- 01:14so that we can better understand.
- 01:18Whether your existing medical conditions
- 01:20as well as the newly diagnosed
- 01:22medical conditions can also be linked
- 01:25and related to the immunological
- 01:27features that we will be studying.
- 01:30Thank you so much for joining the Yellowstone
- 01:34community and together we are going to
- 01:37find the root cause of LON COVID disease.
- 01:40And to be able to come up with therapies
- 01:43that can actually help the lives of people
- 01:46who are suffering from this long covic
- 01:49as well as post vaccine related issues.
- 01:53So I really look forward to working
- 01:55with all of you and to meeting you
- 01:58in different town hall meetings and
- 02:00other events that we're planning.
- 02:02Thank you.
