Vaccine strategy could aid in COVID-19 immunization by Benjamin Boettner, Harvard University
The vaccine platform approach is rooted in the idea that antigens, when they are incorporated together with immune-activating adjuvants in a longer-lived biomaterial scaffold that concentrates immune cells at the site of vaccination, can be presented to the immune system in a more controlled and sustained way than when merely provided transiently in soluble form. As a result of this, the immune system's protective responses can be more effective and prolonged. team of bioengineers, materials-scientists and immunologists at Harvard's Wyss Institute has developed a broadly deployable biomaterials-based infection vaccine technology called OMNIVAX. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-08-vaccine-strategy-aid-covid-immunization.html
