UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) - BactiVac Network - Bacterial Vaccinology Competition
Project disclaimer
Description
This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid project from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) which supports the development of vaccines and vaccine technology for infectious diseases with the potential to cause an epidemic in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on areas of market failure. UKVN has identified a range of human diseases with epidemic potential in LMICs for which the development of vaccines is a priority. The BactiVac Network aims to accelerate the development of vaccines against bacterial infections to reduce antimicrobial use in humans and animals, specifically in LMICs. UKVN funding to BactiVac supports projects that develop vaccines to prevent and/or minimise the emergence and transmission of antimicrobial resistance. A partnership between at least two organisations is a funding requirement, with at least one partner based in the UK, and prioritising partnerships with LMIC researchers. The primary aim of the funding is to encourage the establishment of new, diverse research projects and partnerships which can progress to gain preliminary data and establish their reputation, enabling them to obtain further investment. Funding will also support other UKVN activities which promote collaboration across the membership, particularly for members based in LMICs.
