Some U.S. health care workers got their first dose of the coronavirus vaccine just 12 months after the country’s first confirmed case. How did scientists develop new vaccines so quickly, and how do we know they work?
Dr. Bob Seiser, associate professor of biology and chemistry, will walk us through the process of creating a vaccine from trial to vial. A cell biologist by training, Dr. Seiser has nearly 20 years of experience teaching and sponsoring student research.
This episode is the first in the four-part COVID-19 Vaccine Explained series. Our guest host is Dr. Melissa Hogan, dean of the College of Science, Health and Pharmacy.
