We talk with Dr. Helen Chu, a physician and professor at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA, who studies the transmission of respiratory viruses in the community and correlates of immune protection induced by maternal vaccines against these viruses.
The goal of WashU’s Center for Vaccines and Immunity to Microbial Pathogens (CVIMP) is to facilitate interactions between the clinical expertise in the School of Medicine and basic science departments.
Creating Memory is a CVIMP podcast that interviews scientists working on different stages of vaccine development including basic immunology, antigen and vaccine platform development, animal and laboratory-based studies of immune responses and correlates of protection, GMP production facilities, administrative infrastructure for IND filing, and clinical trials.
