August is National Immunization Awareness Month

08/13 

National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM) is an annual observance held in August to highlight the importance of vaccination for people of all ages.

Vaccines are a simple and safe way to protect us from infection. They help the body learn how to build antibodies to create a defense against pathogens like viruses. Atomic structures help us understand emerging pathogens and identify targets for vaccine development. PDB-101 offers resources for exploring the molecular basis of vaccinations.
