An electronic newsletter from PATH’s vaccine development program
Vaccines for the Future provides a periodic update on PATH’s efforts to develop new, appropriate, and affordable vaccines against two leading causes of death in developing-world populations: pneumonia and diarrhea. It includes updates on our progress, partnerships, and specific projects related to vaccines against pneumococcal disease, rotavirus, Shigella, enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), and influenza.
