RECOVER
Our understanding of Long COVID is constantly evolving with new research findings. Stay informed by reading the latest news and participating in upcoming events.
Researchers across the initiative continue to refine methods to accurately identify Long COVID, learn more about potential treatments, and understand how the condition impacts different groups of people.
A network of 42 RECOVER sites across the US worked to reach out to potential study participants, communicate with the trial team, and reach the trials’ enrollment goal 2 months ahead of schedule.
Biostatisticians and clinicians work together to help funded study teams access resources stored in RECOVER’s biorepository, a unique collection of biosamples from almost 30,000 adults and children.
Feedback from patients, caregivers, and others will help shape studies testing the safety and effectiveness of potential Long COVID treatments.
A study from Mass General Brigham followed 3,659 adults to identify eight different paths that Long COVID can take, based on symptoms and length of illness. The results will inform future studies and possible treatments for Long COVID.
During the October 28 RECOVER Research Review (R3) seminar, RECOVER researchers Samantha Russell, MD, and Janko Nikolich, MD, PhD, MSc, presented their published papers on Long COVID in older adults. Dr. Russell discussed a review article on Long COVID in older adults, which was published in 2024. Dr. Nikolich shared findings from the RECOVER observational study that compared Long COVID symptoms across different age groups. Quinn Barnette, MPH, facilitated the discussion.
Results from the RECOVER-NEURO clinical trial were published in the journal JAMA Neurology. The trial focused on symptoms of cognitive dysfunction associated with Long COVID, including brain fog, trouble focusing, and thinking clearly.
RECOVER pathobiologists have designed a large, collaborative, and innovative study that can help to develop diagnostics for specific types of Long COVID.
A mother living with Long COVID and her daughter, who supports her as a caregiver, share their motivations to join the RECOVER Initiative as Representatives.
