The Program in Vaccine Education at the Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians & Surgeons’ mission is to educate medical students and to inform health care professionals, public health experts, academic, government and industry researchers, policy makers, global health non-governmental organizations, journalists, and the general public as to the cutting-edge advances and challenges in modern vaccine development. The Columbia University convenors are Drs. Lawrence Stanberry (Co-Director, PVE), Philip LaRussa (Co-Director, PVE), Wilmot James (Associate Director, PVE), and Marc Grodman (Special Advisor, PVE). We have put together a group of 25 outstanding speakers (including Keynotes from Drs. Jeremy Farrar, Tedros Ghebreyesus, Anthony Fauci, Moncef Slaoui, Ezekiel Emanuel) who have been intimately involved with all aspects of COVID-19 vaccine development, strategy, and implementation. We are delighted to present this five-day virtual symposium at the cusp of the world’s transition to controlling the COVID-19 pandemic. Click here for agenda and registration.
