Vaccinology in Africa - a virtual master's level course

Overview

This course has been developed in close collaboration with leading clinicians, veterinarians and industrial partners in vaccinology.

The Programme provides state-of-the-art teaching in both human and veterinary vaccinology, drawing on the experience of the Jenner Institute at the University of Oxford, The Pirbright Institute, and the course’s virtual co-host, the KEMRI Wellcome Trust Research Programme in Kenya.

These courses alternate between East and West Africa. In 2021, participation is limited to attendants currently working or studying in East Africa.

Attendance is free to participants. Places are limited and participants will be selected based on their relevant experience and background within the vaccine field, as detailed on the course website.
