Prevent and protect: vaccines and immune responses
How do vaccines stimulate the immune system, and how can we use this knowledge to develop more effective vaccines for future pandemics? Professor Adrian Hill, Co-Director of the Oxford Martin Programme on Vaccines, will discuss the diverse challenges of vaccine design and development, with particular reference to his group’s recent pioneering clinical trials of Ebola virus vaccines.
