University of Queensland researchers partner with Moderna to create fast-tracked, potentially 'game-changing' vaccines
Researchers at the University of Queensland (UQ) are set to partner with biotechnology company Moderna to develop vaccines against some of the world's biggest health threats.
The collaboration is hoped to lay the groundwork for fast-tracking vaccines in the event of another pandemic.
Moderna and pharmaceutical company Pfizer produced the world's first commercial mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
Under the partnership with Moderna, UQ scientists will work with the US-based company to develop mRNA vaccines against diseases such as tuberculosis, dengue, malaria, Zika and HIV.
