The laboratory of Doris J. Bucher, Ph.D., associate professor of pathology, microbiology and immunology, produces high growth reassortant seed viruses for the influenza vaccine, ultimately used to produce 400 to 500 million doses of flu vaccine annually.

The NYMC Genomics Core Laboratory in the Department of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology was selected to assist New York State in the identification of COVID-19 variants. Data is be used and helps build an understanding of disease manifestations, therapy or vaccine evasion and efficacy, and will support other discoveries to inform public health intervention.
