Recombinant vaccines

The Recombinant Vaccines: Strategies for Candidate Discovery and Vaccine Delivery conference, organized by EuroSciCon, hosted a group of UK-based and international scientists from as far afield as Malaysia and Australia. Genomic analyses of pathogens and elucidation of mechanisms of pathogenesis has advanced candidate discovery and development of vaccines. Therefore, it was timely that this conference featured, in addition to detailed expositions of target selection and clinical trials, presentations on manufacturability, scale-up and delivery of vaccines. Ten talks were presented. This meeting report describes the key topics presented and the themes that emerged from this conference. © 2010 Expert Reviews Ltd
