GloPID-R observer, CEPI, seeks senior scientific and global health experts for its Scientific Advisory Committee
GloPID-R observer, CEPI, has launched a call for applications to join its Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC).
The CEPI SAC provides guidance and recommendations on R&D programmes and broader outbreak response efforts. CEPI’s aim is to widen the pool of knowledge of its SAC by engaging senior experts and global health professionals with experience across relevant scientific disciplines for a three-year period from April 2021.
CEPI is a public-private partnership established in 2017 in response to the West African Ebola epidemic. Its mission is to stimulate and accelerate the development of vaccines against emerging infectious diseases and enable access to these vaccines for people during outbreaks.
As many as 25 positions on the CEPI SAC are available including that of Chair and Vice-Chair. Applications close on February 6, 2021.
