Viral Threats Research
Abstract
This effort selects most promising vaccine candidates for evaluation in human subjects against dengue fever (a severe debilitating disease caused by a virus and transmitted by a mosquito) and hantavirus (severe viral infection that causes internal bleeding and is contracted from close contact with rodents). Conduct FDA-required nonclinical safety and protection testing (laboratory-based) in animals, prepare FDA investigational new drug technical data packages and conduct clinical testing of candidate vaccines in humans.
