Monash partners with leading organisations across diverse fields and industries to create solutions and generate impactful change.
Moderna
Monash has joined forces with Moderna to establish the first commercial-scale mRNA vaccines manufacturing facility in the Southern Hemisphere. Capable of producing up to 100 million vaccine doses during a pandemic, the facility plans to manufacture mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses such as COVID-19, RSV and influenza. Following a two-year construction period, the facility will be operational by the end of 2024.
Monash and Moderna also launched the Monash-Moderna Quantitative Pharmacology Accelerator, focusing on accelerating the development of mRNA medicines through mathematical computer models.
As a key partner in Moderna's mRNA Platform Incubator Network, we enhance the interconnectivity of Australian organisations to advance mRNA medicine research and development.
We also collaborated with the Victorian Government to establish the Monash Centre for Advanced mRNA Medicines Manufacturing and Workforce Training, which will educate and train specialists in mRNA technology.
