alt="" > An accomplished cellist, TED Fellow Joshua Roman has practiced his instrument
daily since he was a child– up until an extreme case of long COVID practically robbed

incredible brand-new solo composition, entitled “Resistance.”.  [Source](https://www.ted.com/talks/joshua_roman_how_music_helped_me_live_through_long_covid?rss=172BB350-0205)
