Become a member of the International Veterinary Vaccinology Network

More

Welcome to the International Veterinary Vaccinology Network (IVVN).

The IVVN is an international community of over 1,600 members working together to develop improved vaccines for livestock and zoonotic diseases.

About Us

The Network provides the opportunity to establish multi-partnered, international collaborations that bring together the diverse skills that can accelerate the development of vaccines. 
Vaccines for Aquaculture, Vaccines for Poultry, Vaccines for Swine and Vaccines for Ruminants

IVVN Virtual Symposia

A series of half-day online meetings, featuring talks, posters and networking, with each symposium focused on efforts to develop vaccines for a different host group.

Funded pump-priming grants

The IVVN fund pump-priming projects to accelerate the development of vaccines for livestock diseases of importance in LMICs. Find out more about the ten exciting projects we have funded so far.

IVVN African Schools Outreach Programme

The IVVN African Schools Outreach Programme is a collaborative initiative which trains and supports women scientists working in Africa to deliver schools outreach workshops and inspire the next generation of African scientists.
