About

Our research on vaccines includes observational studies of vaccine effectiveness, vaccine safety, and disparities in vaccine coverage. We participate in large research networks including the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) and VISION. In addition, we conduct vaccine clinical trials and support interventions to promote vaccinations in healthcare and community settings.
