‘First pandemic roadmap driven by the manufacturing sector’
April 22, 2021
What it calls a roadmap to strengthen and accelerate pandemic response and preparedness in the U.S. has been launched by the Manchester-based Advanced Regenerative Manufacturing Institute.
The initiative – called the National Technology Roadmap for Pandemic Response and Recovery – outlines a technology-based action plan for dealing with pandemics. It recommends special technology and commercialization efforts that could be implemented to respond to and recover from Covid-19,as well as longer-term research and development priorities necessary to improve readiness.
In its announcement, ARMI said the strategy is “the first pandemic roadmap driven by the manufacturing sector. Given that the manufacturing sector will be at the center of a stronger, faster and more coordinated U.S. response to and recovery from Covid-19 and future pandemics, this roadmap will help ensure U.S. preparedness and resiliency.”
