Lectures and seminars IVI’s 21st International Vaccinology Course

Course Introduction: 

In order to celebrate IVI’s EU office opening in Stockholm, this year’s vaccinology course will be organized in a hybrid format having the participants hosted in Karolinska Institute (15-20 participants in Stockholm) and IVI HQ (115 participants in Seoul), the presentations will be lively broadcasted from both venues (i.e., Stockholm and Seoul).  

This flagship training program reflects IVI’s mission to make vaccines available for global health by building capacity in vaccinology and promoting vaccine sustainability in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Over 20 years, the course has trained nearly 5,000 vaccine professionals from LMICs worldwide, fostering collaborative partnerships in research and public health.

This year’s five-day course highlights Breakthroughs in Vaccine Science and Technology, paying tribute to the remarkable strides in vaccine innovation during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they’ve changed the landscape and future of vaccine development.

The course is a combination of lectures, and interactive case studies, presented and facilitated by experts from academia, industry, government, and non-governmental organizations.
From “refresher” lectures to applied topics in vaccine discovery, development, and delivery, the course provides a comprehensive overview of vaccinology with a focus on practicality.
