According to her, this happened due to the development of a bioinformatics school in the country.

The head of the FMBA noted that research on the development of cancer vaccines was also conducted by Germany, China and the United States, but they tried to make a single drug for all patients.

"Because of this, the efficiency was very low," she said in an interview with RT.
