Nobel Prize to mRNA vaccines against COVID-19
The discoveries by the two Nobel Laureates Hungarian biochemist Katalin Karik and immunologist Drew Weissman, were critical for developing effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 during the pandemic that began in early 2020. Through their groundbreaking findings, which have fundamentally changed our understanding of how mRNA interacts with our immune system, the laureates contributed to the unprecedented rate of vaccine development during one of the greatest threats to human health in modern times.
