The epidemiology of pandemics and vaccines: the history and process of vaccine development in the US and globally; rapid response to produce a covid-19 vaccine, and near-term drug and antibody therapies

Speaker Dr. Emily Toth Martin is on the faculty of Epidemiology at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Her research focuses on building a greater understanding of the epidemiology of viral respiratory diseases (including RSV, bocavirus, and influenza) through the use of molecular epidemiology. In particular, her work aims to identify strategies to reduce infections, particularly in individuals with chronic comorbidities and in hospital infectious environments (including MRSA / VRE coinfection).
