The MƒA Thursday Think Speaker Series brings accomplished speakers who dive into cutting-edge topics in STEM education to MƒA. These talks, held once a month throughout the school year, invite MƒA teachers and the general public to learn and engage with these thought leaders and professionals in mathematics, science, and education.

What have we learned since the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines began in December 2020? How effective and safe are the vaccines? What do we know about immunity against the new virus variants? Do the vaccines protect against asymptomatic transmission? And do you really need to be vaccinated if you’ve already contracted COVID-19? Join renowned virologist Dr. Florian Krammer as he shares the latest on vaccines, immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infections, and the vaccine rollout in New York, nationwide, and internationally. Dr. Krammer will also discuss additional vaccines in development, how the situation might evolve in the next few months, and how we might better prepare against future pandemics.
