PROVIDENCE, R.I., Feb. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ EpiVax, Inc. ( EpiVax ) today announces its participation in the INDIGO consortium – a partnership of public and private research and development organizations from the EU, India, and United States (funded by the EU and India) with the aim of developing next-generation influenza vaccines with better responsiveness, lower costs, and better accessibility.
The INDIGO consortium, led by Dr. Remko van Leeuwen (INDIGO s Principal Investigator) of the Amsterdam Institute for Global Health and Development ( AIGHD ), plans to achieve this goal by exploring innovative influenza vaccine concepts. The group will aim to produce novel seasonal (A and B) and avian flu (H7N9 and H5N1) vaccines by combining three cutting-edge elements: novel recombinant HAs with increased immunogenicity, a potent adjuvant, and delivery via needle-free intradermal patches.

An influenza pandemic like that of 1918 could make the scourge of COVID-19 look mild. A vaccine to prevent it may finally be possible.

Between 1918 and 1920, the ‘Spanish flu’ infected a third of the world’s population, and caused an astronomical 17 million deaths. A century later, we have yet to develop defenses against an equally devastating influenza pandemic, says Stacey Knobler, senior director at the Sabin Vaccine Institute.
L. Frank Baum s 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz is getting yet another film adaptation more than a century on.
The latest incarnation comes more than eight decades after The Wizard Of Oz, the legendary MGM movie from 1939 starring Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale.
Nicole Kassell, who has directed on such TV shows as Watchmen and Vinyl, will be at the helm of the new film according to Variety.

2016: The Year in Tech / CIOs Sound Off
We talk to CIOs at all levels of government on a variety of issues throughout the year. But few topics elicited livelier responses than when we posed this particular question. Morgan Reed, CIO, Arizona Jessica Mulholland/Government Technology
We asked CIOs: What technology would you like out of your portfolio? I’m a career data center guy, but I don’t want to be in the data center business, the mainframe business or the operations business. We have a managed service/outsourcing arrangement with the state network. It’s the best service I have, it’s the most mature from a capabilities standpoint and it’s got the most uptime, so why would I try to do anything different? I’d rather use public-private partnerships to figure out if someone can operate our services better than we can.
