Vaccine Research: The Road Ahead
Mon, December 14th, 2020
Zoom Webinar
Vaccine development is a long and complex process that often takes many years of work by both public and private researchers. The current system for developing, testing, and regulating vaccines was forced to accelerate in light of the coronavirus pandemic. Now that the vaccines have been developed, the next big challenge is to ensure an adequate supply and proper deployment of the vaccines to the highest risk groups. This workshop assessed the changes in the vaccine development process as well as the challenges of proper deployment.
This workshop was hosted as part of Carnegie India's Global Technology Summit 2020.
