With less than a month to go before we congregate for the World Vaccine Congress in Washington in April, we are pleased to share the organisations and individuals who have progressed to the final shortlist for the VIE Awards.
After successful rounds of submissions and voting we now present the shortlist. The names below have been contacted to fill in a submission form for review by the Scientific Advisory Board, which contributes to the final decision.
