NISKAYUNA Scientists at General Electric Co s research lab here are learning how to make vaccines on demand as part of a project that could one day help the military craft thousands of doses in hard-to-reach places in just a matter of days.
GE Research is part of a larger team of scientists from the Broad Institute in Cambridge, Mass., the University of Washington and elsewhere that were recently awarded $41 million to help create components of a mobile vaccine manufacturing system for the Defense Department that would build upon the ribonucleic acid, or RNA, technology used in Pfizer and Moderna s COVID-19 vaccines.
