Meet Peter Seeberger
“Early on, I received a Fulbright scholarship to perform graduate work at the University of Colorado with Marv Caruthers, the inventor of gene synthesis machines and a co-founder of Amgen. It opened new perspectives and eventually led to my work on automated glycan assembly, which in turn resulted in novel vaccines and diagnostics. My work today focuses on creating vaccines to protect everybody from deadly infectious diseases, and new methods to produce affordable drugs.”
