The Future of Vaccinology

The Future of Vaccinology

Wednesday, March 30, 2022, 9:00 AM - Thursday, March 31, 2022, 5:30 PM EDT

New York City

Presented By

Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Discussion Group

The New York Academy of Sciences

 

Historically, vaccine development has been a slow process, though new scientific discoveries and technologies in the last quarter century accelerated advances in virology and vaccinology. More recently, a possible paradigm shift has emerged — the race to develop COVID-19 vaccines demonstrated massive achievements in speed and efficacy of new vaccine development using both old and novel vaccine platforms.

To better understand what we can learn from recent successes in vaccine development and deployment, this two-day conference will convene leaders in vaccinology, virology, immunology, biotechnology, microbiology, systems biology, and health policy. Session topics include a look back at advances in vaccine development, updates from present-day vaccinology, a discussion on how vaccine development can be strengthened based on COVID-19 vaccine learnings, pharma company pipeline updates, next generation vaccine adjuvants, improving immune measures, and more.
