What if we could eliminate viruses as current and future health threats?

APECx (Antigens Predicted for Broad Viral Efficacy through Computational Experimentation) aims to transform vaccine antigen discovery, first by developing toolkits that successfully design broadly effective antigens, targeting entire viral families, and then demonstrating the toolkits’ accuracy by evaluating candidate vaccine antigens in clinical trials. If successful, the APECx toolkit and subsequent product development will demonstrate the possibility of broadly effective vaccines against multiple virus threats and eliminate entire types of viruses that are responsible for causing cancer, autoimmune disease, chronic illness, emerging infections, and potential pandemics.
