For over 20 years,
Dr. Caitlin has worked as a research
assistant for several researchers at
Pennsylvania State University with
limited research funding and more than
30 rejection of grants. Because mRNA
technology was still considered a
fantasy, it wasn't possible. to meet
Dr. Drew Weissman, who is working on a
vaccine against the AIDS virus. That was
before meeting Dr. Drew Wiseman, who is
developing a vaccine against
AIDS.
Both took the several years to
synthesize mRNA whose structure mimicked
the genetic material of the virus. It
can then be used to efficiently build
viral proteins within body cells without
stimulating the immune system that
causes illness. This technology has been
used to create vaccines that stimulate
cells to make antibodies for COVID-19.
safely, Dr. Caitlin and Dr. Drew are
also the first received this mRNA
injection at the end of 2020. Dr.
Caitlin is currently senior vice
president of BioNTech, which co-produces
the vaccine with Pfizer.https://www.sarakadeelite.com/faces/mrna-vaccine/
