Join us for the next session in the Lunch, Learn, Immunize Virtual Series, a webinar designed for adult immunization providers and public health professionals interested in understanding how vaccines move from scientific discovery to public use.
This session will explore the vaccine lifecycle, from research and development through clinical trials, FDA review, ACIP recommendations, and ongoing safety monitoring. Participants will gain insight into the rigorous processes used to ensure vaccines are safe, effective, and continuously monitored after licensure. Topics will include vaccine development timelines, the recommendation process, post-licensure safety systems, and how scientific evidence informs vaccine policy and practice.
Featured speakers include Phyllis Arthur, Senior Vice President for Infectious Diseases and Diagnostics Policy at BIO, and Emily Acker, MPH, a public health professional with extensive experience in immunization policy and vaccine confidence initiatives.
Whether you work in public health, healthcare, pharmacy, or immunization programs, this webinar will provide valuable insight into the journey vaccines take from development to delivery and the robust systems that help ensure their safety and effectiveness.
