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. UKVN is funding Innovate UK to run the Vaccine Development for Diseases with Epidemic Potential competition. The competition aims to support projects seeking to develop vaccines, vaccine platform technologies and manufacturing technologies that will enable an effective, rapid response during future outbreaks of diseases of epidemic potential in LMICs. The projects include work that has progressed from earlier UKVN-Innovate UK competitions, including the Vaccines for Epidemic Diseases: Readiness for Clinical Development and Regulatory Submission Competition, Innovate Vaccine Development Competition 2017-2020, Innovate Preclinical Vaccine Development Competition 2017-2021, and Innovate Clinical Vaccine Development Competition 2018-2021. The successive funding allows for successful previous projects to receive follow on funding and progress vaccine candidates down the developmental pipeline. This project was not put out to an open, competitive tender process because, as a non-departmental public body of the UK government, Innovate UK is uniquely positioned to manage research calls.
