Upcoming VALIDATE Seminar - A Vaccine for Leprosy? - 28 June 2022
VALIDATE is pleased to bring you the third in our "A Vaccine for" seminar series, in which leading experts will provide an overview of the state of vaccine research for VAIDATE’s focus pathogens. In "A Vaccine for Leprosy?", Dr Khushboo Borah and Dr Chyntia Carolina Díaz Acosta will discuss the prospects for a vaccine for Leprosy, the disease caused by Mycobacteria Leprae of which there are still over 200,000 new cases of diagnosed every year.
The seminar is open to everyone (including non-members), so please spread the word. This event will be especially interesting to vaccine researchers who do not study leprosy.
The event will take place at 16:00 BST, 28 June 2022 and you can register on the event webpage - www.validate-network.org/event/a-vaccine-for-leprosy
