The University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center has launched a research collaboration with Pure MHC, LLC an innovative biotechnology company, to work toward the development of a vaccine for the COVID-19 virus.
“With OU, we are acquiring the actual COVID-19 virus, and we will infect cells and look for the targets on the infected cells. We will use those targets to either develop a vaccine or to directly target them with something like monoclonal antibodies.”
