The CVD at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UM SOM) in Baltimore, MD has worked nationally and internationally for 40 years to develop, test, and deploy vaccines against infectious diseases to aid the world’s underserved populations. The CVD is an academic enterprise engaged in the full range of vaccinology, including basic science research, vaccine pre-clinical and clinical evaluation, and post-marketing field studies. Since its inception in 1974, the CVD has created and tested vaccines against cholera, typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, non-typhoidal salmonella disease, shigellosis (bacillary dysentery), Escherichia coli diarrhea, nosocomial pathogens, tularemia, influenza, and other Founding Director infectious diseases. Our faculty and global staff includes molecular biologists, microbiologists, immunologists, internists, pediatricians, epidemiologists, malariologists, and biostatisticians. The CVD has research, outpatient, and in-patient challenge facilities in Baltimore, MD and field sites in Mali, Malawi, Myanmar, and Chile. In addition, we pursue time-limited field studies in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Examples of countries where we work include Pakistan, India, Thailand, Kenya, The Gambia, Mozambique, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Peru, Indonesia, Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama, and Venezuela.
The University of Maryland Carey School of Law was established in 1816 and began regular instruction in 1824. It is the third-oldest law school in the nation, but its innovative programs make it one of the liveliest and most dynamic today. Maryland Law stands among five other professional schools on the University of Maryland, Baltimore campus. It has taken advantage of this location to become an integral part of the Baltimore-Washington legal and business community.
