EP 69: Designing a Covid-19 Vaccine for the World | Maria Elena Bottazzi

What is an open source vaccine? How are vaccine and beer production similar? Are D.I.Y. vaccine starters kits the best strategy to vaccinate the world? Dr. Maria Elena Bottazzi is an internationally recognized tropical and emerging disease vaccinologist, global health advocate and co-creator of a patent-free, open science COVID-19 vaccine technology that led to the development of Corbevax, a COVID-19 vaccine for the world. She pioneers and leads innovative partnerships for the advancement of a robust vaccine development portfolio tackling diseases that disproportionately affect the world’s poorest populations, making significant contributions to catalyze policies and disseminate science information to reach a diverse set of audiences. In 2022, alongside vaccine researcher Peter Hotez, she was nominated by Congresswoman Lizzie Fletcher of Texas for the Nobel Peace Prize.
