The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a new invention for licensing, aiming to quickly commercialize results from government-funded research. This invention involves a vaccine technology, developed by NIH, that uses adenovirus type 4 to stimulate an immune response against SARS-CoV-2. The vaccine offers benefits like durable immunity and ease of distribution and is available for companies to license. Interested parties can obtain further information and discuss collaboration opportunities by contacting Chris Kornak from the NIH.
Simple Explanation
