Abstract

Vaccines have stemmed many infectious diseases, but when SARS-CoV-2 emerged, traditional vaccine development would not have been fast enough. This year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine recognizes work that enabled the rapid development of mRNA vaccines, which halted the COVID-19 pandemic. The feat was a product of basic biological insights coupled with technological innovations, which have transformed vaccine design.
