Messenger RNA technology shows promise for developing infectious disease therapeutics

Army scientists and industry partners were among the first to demonstrate that messenger RNA (mRNA)—the technology recently used in COVID-19 vaccines and others—could also be used to develop treatments for infectious diseases. Their work appears in the June 2022 issue of the journal Molecular Therapy Nucleic Acids.
