The ninth COVID-19 Conversations webinar will discuss the road to immunity during COVID-19, including the basics of vaccine development, how developing a vaccine for COVID-19 differs from "traditional" vaccine development, and what actions can be taken now and in the coming months to ensure that our supply chain is ready to manufacture millions of doses of a vaccine.

  • John R. Mascola - Director, Dale and Betty Bumpers Vaccine Research Center, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

  • Richard J. Hatchett - Chief Executive Officer, Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI)
  • Seth Berkley - Chief Executive Officer, Gavi, The Vaccine Alliance

 

The panel discussion will be followed by a Q&A session with the webinar audience.
