CureVac gives back
As a company of people passionate about using science to improve the lives of others, we aim to put that same effort into giving back to the community. One major way CureVac gives back is by sponsoring local projects or projects thematically connected to our work:

Created a free permanent exhibition “Cradle of Biochemistry” in the Ancient Culture Museum
in the Hohentübingen Castle in Tübingen, Germany with prize money received from the Vaccine Prize given by the European Commission. This was just one way we thanked the city of Tübingen, a true cradle of biochemistry, where the DNA and RNA molecules were first discovered in 1869.
