VacciTalks: Behind the Scenes: Challenging Race of Vaccine Development
Welcome to VacciTalks by Alira Health – exclusive educational appointments with the leading vaccine experts.
For private companies, vaccine development is difficult, risky and takes time and money. Only a few candidates will reach the market and will help to protect patients. Companies are in severe competition to develop and bring their final vaccine products into the supply chain. In the second episode of VacciTalks, together with vaccine expert Roberto Camerini we peeked behind the scenes of vaccine development and get a unique insider look at vaccine development. We discussed difficulties, hurdles, and bottlenecks that vaccine produces face during the vaccine development and even after the product is delivered to the market and ways to overcome them.
During this VacciTalk you can learn:
- How to set up a pipeline for a vaccine candidate
- How to navigate process difficulties and prevent bottlenecks
- Why partners, support, collaboration, and funding are essential
- Market outlook and prospects for newly developed vaccines
