Episode description

On today’s episode, Host D speaks with Dr. Rinke Bos who is a Principal Scientist at Janssen Vaccines & Prevention in Leiden, the Netherlands, currently working on developing a vaccine for COVID-19. Dr. Rinke’s work focuses on research and development of vaccines against viral infectious diseases and she is leading the charge when it comes to finding a vaccine to end the current pandemic. She shares how she became interested and involved in immunology (D’s career in a next life!), advice for those who may be interested in pursuing a similar career path, and the questions that are still left unanswered when it comes to the worldwide pandemic. Dr. Rinke also discusses the current status of a COVID-19 vaccine and why this virus in particular is so difficult to grasp, from those who transmit the virus to how it is spread.
