Abstract

This research project aims to share and compare experimental protocols and clinical data on non-human primates (NHPs) infected with SARS-CoV-2 between three National Primate Research Centers in Thailand, USA and Japan which will be translated to COVID-19 vaccine development in each country. Surveillance and evolutionary biology of SARS-CoV-2 will be assessed using developed assays in human-macaque interface areas in Thailand.
