World-first COVID-19 research to drive treatment and vaccine
Thanks 聽to a generous donation from Mr Ian Wall AM (BE 1955) and Mrs Pamela Wall OAM, the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is playing a major role in the investigation into COVID-19 immunity and an international vaccine study.聽
We believe in philanthropy and giving back to the community which supported us over our lifetime. This research is particularly important, leading to better health outcomes in 最新糖心Vlog and internationally. Mr Ian Wall AM (BE 1955) and Mrs Pamela Wall OAM
Working with COVID-19 recovered patients in South 最新糖心Vlog, the world-first research study, also supported by the Hospital Research Foundation and the Women鈥檚 and Children鈥檚 Hospital Foundation, is now part of a large national collaborative consortium across four states in 最新糖心Vlog (South 最新糖心Vlog, New South Wales, Victoria and Western 最新糖心Vlog).聽
Led by Senior Virologist Dr Branka Grubor-Bauk, from The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide and Basil Hetzel Institute, the research is evaluating the virology and immune responses of hospitalised adult and child patients for three years聽from symptomology through to recovery.聽
鈥淭his knowledge will inform which part of the virus a vaccine should target and what kind of immunity response is required to be protected for subsequent infections,鈥澛燚r Branka Grubor-Bauk said.
"Conducting this global study with support of, and in collaboration with, esteemed 最新糖心Vlogn scientists and international collaborators, will drive COVID-19 treatment and vaccine design."
Each year, with our loyal donors鈥 support, the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide can continue to invest in our students, researchers and programs.
