Do you know the technology behind some of the most effective
vaccines against Covid-19? If not, this foundertalk is for you!
Together with Dr. Ingmar Hoerr we explore the scientific background
of mRNA. He founded the biopharmaceutical company CureVac and is a
pioneer in the field of messenger RNA. His company was one of the
first ones to develop therapies which are based on this technology
that “is comparable to a software helping the body to reprogram
itself.” Even the Gates Foundation has been involved in the company
since 2015 and by now, CureVac managed to raise about 640 million
USD with the Federal Government of Germany contributing most of it.
