Co-Immune

An open science initiative to collectively address the contemporary challenges of vaccination.

Co-Immune

An open science initiative to collectively address the contemporary challenges of vaccination


Co-Immune is a collaborative and open research program elaborated and implemented by Just One Giant Lab (JOGL) which aims to tackle contemporary challenges related to vaccination by enhancing collective intelligence, using digital tools and open data. This program offers challenges, mentorship and an independent peer-reviewing system. It is open to anyone who wishes to contribute to building knowledge and innovative solutions around vaccination coverage in a collaborative and open science framework. Hence, ensuring an unlimited and open access and use of all produced material to accelerate the sharing of impactful initiatives.


Vaccination is one of the most efficient health interventions available to us (1). However, vaccine-preventable diseases are now on the rise in France and around the world (2), alarming the World Health Organization (WHO), regional and local stakeholders (1). In France, Agnes Buzyn, Minister of Solidarity and Health, has made this issue a priority (4). Co-Immune joins these ongoing global dynamic and efforts by proposing an inclusive and collaborative approach to increase the number and diversity of contributors and foster the emergence of open solutions.

We stand by the few who suffer from rare diseases and the millions with long-term chronic conditions. With more than 100,000 people in 100 countries, Sanofi is transforming scientific innovation into healthcare solutions around the globe.


JOGL's approach fully resonates with Sanofi's approach to e-health: open, inclusive and people-centered. That is why Sanofi is a partner of JOGL and supports the Co-Immune program.


Sanofi's support for Co-Immune, as part of its partnership with JOGL, consists of 4 components: financial support, human expertise, data collection and communication support.


Sanofi respects the strict independence of JOGL, which administers its platform and the Co-Immune page in complete autonomy.
