We are excited to invite you to Nipah Virus Research Day, a pivotal research event hosted by the Pandemic Sciences Institute that will explore the latest interdisciplinary advancements in Nipah virus research from the PSI Henipavirus Programme and more broadly. Presentations will cover advances in scientific, social science and translational research. In line with this, we will have an external speaker, Mura Manuela, from the European Medicines Agency, to speak on pathways to vaccine licensure.
Highlights include: – Preliminary data from the Nipah virus vaccine clinical trial – Updates on work by PAD initiative-funded researchers – Novel approaches to societal and ethical considerations for Nipah research and outbreak management – Opportunities to network with other researchers from the PSI.
The event will take place on 19 November 2025 from 9:30-17:00 in the Richard Doll Building lecture theatre, Old Road Campus, University of Oxford. It will close with a drinks reception from 16:00-17:00.
The event is open to staff and students at PSI, and across the University of Oxford.
