European Vaccine Initiative

The European Vaccine Initiative (EVI) is a non-profit organisation based at UniversitätsKlinikumHeidelberg, Germany. EVI provides the funding and managerial expertise required for the development of vaccines against diseases of poverty. In addition, EVI acts as a coordinator for numerous vaccine development projects funded by the European Commission, including TRANSVAC. The collaboration of leading European groups within TRANSVAC results in TRANSVAC being able to offer a coordinated set of complimentary vaccine R&D facilities.
