Advanced Vaccinology Course in India
(Admissions 2012)
Vaccines are one of the greatest success stories in public health, and are a critical component of the health security of a nation. With the production and introduction of newer vaccines world-wide, there are aggressive campaigns to introduce these vaccines into India. There is a need to conclusively establish that these vaccines are indeed required in India and that they cover the pathogens (serotypes) that are prevalent locally. The science of Vaccinology therefore emerges, and it is envisaged that there would be training needs for mid to senior level professionals in the health sector.
OBJECTIVE
The course aims to provide a comprehensive overview of Vaccinology, and strengthen the capacity within India in this field. The course will cover aspects of vaccinology, from basic immunology, the process of development of a vaccine, the licensure and regulatory requirements, the process of introducing a new vaccine into a country, vaccine trials, and translation of research into policy.
WHO CAN APPLY
Anyone working in the field of Vaccinology with knowledge of biology. The course is aimed at specialists in Infectious Diseases, paediatricians, physicians, research nurses, team members of vaccine trials, members of contract (or clinical) research organizations (CRO), vaccine industry professionals.
