Can we create vaccines that mutate and spread

In early days of his career, Virologist Leor Weinberger noticed a fundamental mismatch in the creation of viral therapies. While viruses are dynamic, therapies were static. He spent the next 20 years pursuing a radical question: Can a therapy mutate and transmit just as a virus does? He chased this idea wholeheartedly, in a quest for a dynamic therapy for HIV. In doing so, he created a “hijacker therapy“ which allows a vaccine hijacker cell to protect cells from HIV. This would not only stop the spread of HIV, but could change the future of viral outbreaks. Leor persevered to create a vaccine for HIV that effectively mimics the properties of a virus itself. To learn how this discovery could stop the next viral pandemic, watch Leor's Talk, “Can we create vaccines that mutate and spread?“ now on . Note: FDA clinical trial approval indicates ppIND review.
