Pandemic Preparedness (featuring Dr. Barney Graham)

If something like the COVID-19 pandemic ever happened again, how would we deal with it? Would it be any different from last time? Through our experiences from 2020 to now, it's important to remember how crucial vaccine development and preventative research efforts are in matters of public health. Today, we're joined by Dr. Barney Graham, who has made major contributions to vaccines for HIV/AIDS, Zika, RSV, and ultimately SARS-CoV-2. Tune in to hear Dr. Graham's firsthand experiences with discovering virus spike proteins, working on various teams to develop vaccines for different epidemics, and advocating for global health policy reform. Dr. Barney Graham is the former deputy director and one of the founding members of the Vaccine Research Center, which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2022 and currently serves as the director of the David Satcher Global Health Equity Institute at the Morehouse School of Medicine.
