International Precision Vaccines Conference
In solidarity with World Vaccine Day 2025
08-09 October 2025
Innovation in Precision Vaccinology: Addressing Emerging Pathogens & Diseases
The 5th International Precision Vaccines Conference will be co-hosted by the Precision Vaccines Program of Boston Children’s Hospital (BCH; Boston, MA), Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesù (OPBG; Rome, Italy), The University of Vermont (UVM; Burlington, Vermont), and Dartmouth University (Hanover, New Hampshire). Our conference theme will be innovation in precision vaccinology to protect against emerging pathogens and infectious and non-infectious diseases including opioid overdose. This in-person conference will gather experts in vaccinology and immunology from academia, government, and industry to present, discuss, interact and forge new collaborations to advance precision vaccinology.
The goal of the 5th International Precision Vaccines Conference is to discuss and reflect on recent progress in precision vaccinology to address pathogens for which current vaccines are not yet available or are currently suboptimal as well as for non-infectious indications such as prevention of opioid overdose.
We welcome abstracts from different disciplines, spanning epidemiology, basic immunology, systems vaccinology, human in vitro modeling, novel adjuvant science, and qualitative research regarding vaccine attitudes.

SHOT IN THE ARM Documentary Screening
In solidarity with World Vaccine Day
May 14th at 6:00pm PT / 9:00pm ET
“SHOT IN THE ARM is a call to humanity to take a step back before we are all eliminated or too sick to care for anyone, let alone ourselves."
–– Sabina Dana Plasse, Film Threat
From Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Scott Hamilton Kennedy and Executive Producer Neil deGrasse Tyson, SHOT IN THE ARM is a powerful chronicle of our time that hopes to heal our divides by rebuilding faith in the social contract.
In the spring of 2019, before anyone had heard of COVID-19, Scott (THE GARDEN, FOOD EVOLUTION) began investigating a global measles epidemic and filming with top public health officials –including Tony Fauci, Paul Offit and Peter Hotez– who were trying to stop the measles outbreaks, as well as with anti-vaccine activists - like Robert Kennedy, Jr., Andrew Wakefield and Del Bigtree - who were persuading parents by the millions to refuse vaccines for their children. Then COVID-19 happened.
Video Panel Discussions for World Vaccine Day

Passionate in Vaccine Development and Strengthening Childhood Immunization
Moderator is Dr. Aditi Bakshi from India
Immunization has been his passion over the years and has most recently participated with the community health centers in Rajasthan under the National Health Mission Program of India. He advocates to make vaccination possible for every child and to reduce zero dose situations and missed opportunities for vaccination.
In this video he discusses conjugate vaccines and successes. A conjugate vaccine is a type of subunit vaccine which combines a weak antigen with a strong antigen as a carrier so that the immune system has a stronger response to the weak antigen.
