Boston Childrens Hospital
The Precision Vaccines Program (PVP), based in the Department of Pediatrics at Boston Children’s Hospital, is an academic research initiative dedicated to discovering and developing next-generation vaccines tailored to vulnerable populations. PVP conducts both basic and translational research to create novel vaccines and therapeutics for diseases that disproportionately affect infants, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals. The program brings together experts in vaccinology, clinical trials, immunology, molecular biology, data management, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and systems biology, fostering international collaboration among academia, government, and industry to advance precision medicine in vaccinology.
