| Summary |
Since the publication of our first book book ""Vaccine Design: Innovative Approaches and Novel Strategies"" in 2011, the field of vaccinology has advanced significantly. The application of new sophisticated 'omics' technologies and the use of pioneering approaches have yielded a wealth of new data. This new book aims to distill the most important new findings to provide a timely overview of the field. Written by leading experts in the field, each chapter affords a critical insight to a particular topic, reviews current research, discusses future direction and aims to stimulate discussion. The |
