MVA, or the miRcore Vaccine Advocacy, aims to promote vaccine administration by addressing public concerns about the new COVID-19 vaccines. We provide tools, resources, and training to empower our student advocates. Working within their communities and networks to dispel misinformation, our advocates address reservations about vaccination by using scientific and empathetic approaches.

The CSSC is run by miRcore, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that engages in biomedical research and education to improve healthcare outcomes through precision medicine. We are guided by three core values: science, compassion and collaboration, and a mission to democratize medical research since 2009. We have engaged primarily with high school students interested in computational biology, enabling them to learn and perform their own research while encouraging them to connect scientists and the public through microgrants.
