BactiVac Network

Accelerating Bacterial Vaccines

BactiVac, the Bacterial Vaccines Network, brings together members based in academic, industry and policy sectors to accelerate the development of vaccines against bacterial infections relevant to low and middle income countries (LMICs). The BactiVac Network delivers this through catalyst project and training awards to encourage cross-collaboration between academic and industrial partners in developed and developing nations.
