CVD: A Leader in Global Health for 40 Years
The School of Medicine's Institute for Human Virology and Center for Vaccine Development and Global Health has taken a national lead in extending UMB's work beyond national borders. It's a global leader in vaccine development, disease surveillance, and reducing child mortality rates, based on more than 40 years of research and service. CVD has extensive expertise monitoring HIV/AIDS, including conducting the largest-ever in-country study of HIV. CVD was also the first global center to test, develop, and license vaccines for critical emerging diseases such as Ebola, Zika, cholera, and typhoid.
