Dr. Hotez is an internationally known vaccine scientist who has partnered with a number of Tulane faculty in the past and (along with Dr. Maria Elena Bottazi) is a Nobel Peace Prize nominee for developing a safe, streamlined, and affordable COVID-19 vaccine that can be easily accessed by countries around the world. CORBEVAX uses a traditional recombinant protein-based technology that can be produced at large scales and made widely accessible to the entire global population.
