If you are a science enthusiast, you have probably heard of Dianna Cowern, an American science communicator and YouTuber known as Physics Girl, who is living with Long COVID and ME/CFS.
This Saturday (July 6, 2024), Dianna’s team will be live-streaming a day in her life, showcasing what it’s like for her to suffer from from Long COVID and ME/CFS. The livestream will be viewable on the PhysicsGirl YouTube channel from 6:45 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (Pacific time).
Co-hosted by Ian Hecox and Simone Giertz, the event will feature pre-recorded expert interviews and in-depth discussions about Dianna’s journey. While Dianna won’t be speaking during the livestream – she will be in bed, mostly awake, resting as she does daily – viewers can learn from the interviews and discussions, hear Kyle, Simone and Ian answer your questions, and of course, see Dianna.
Pre-recorded interviews from experts include:
Linda Tannenbaum, Founder and CEO of OMF, interviewed by Derek Muller from Veritasium.
Dr. David Kaufman, an ME/CFS specialist, interviewed by Vanessa Hill from BrainCraft.
Dr. Raven Baxter, a science communicator, interviewed by Kyle Kitzmiller.
Dr. David Putrino, Director of Rehabilitation Innovation for Mt. Sinai Health Systems, interviewed by Kyle Kitzmiller.
All proceeds from this event will benefit Open Medicine Foundation (OMF), supporting our crucial research into ME/CFS and Long COVID.
