About

Dr. Moira Spyer is a clinical researcher and infectious disease specialist whose work has been instrumental in addressing critical challenges in pandemic response and diagnostic scalability. Her key research areas focus on viral epidemiology, point-of-care testing, and healthcare system resilience during outbreaks. Dr. Spyer’s most notable contribution is her pioneering study on “Scalable and Resilient SARS-CoV-2 testing in an Academic Centre” (2020), which provided a practical framework for rapidly expanding testing capacity during the early COVID-19 pandemic—a time when global shortages of tests placed healthcare workers at risk. This work, cited 14 times, demonstrated how academic medical centers could adapt existing infrastructure to meet unprecedented demand, directly influencing testing protocols in hospitals worldwide. Her research emphasizes the intersection of clinical virology and operational logistics, ensuring that diagnostic tools are both accurate and accessible under crisis conditions. Dr. Spyer’s contributions have been recognized for their immediate real-world impact, helping to safeguard frontline healthcare workers and inform public health strategies during a global health emergency. Her ongoing work continues to shape resilient diagnostic systems for future outbreaks.
