Understanding immune mechanisms induced by pulmonary vaccination

本项目旨在更好地了解一种新型肺部疫苗接种策略的免疫诱导机制。能够以安全有效的方式提供疫苗，诱导有效的肺和全身免疫反应，对人类和动物健康具有广泛的影响。最终，疫苗将作为稳定的干粉输送到肺部，试图消除运输冷链的需要，从而促进疫苗向偏远地区的分发。该项目不仅有利于澳大利亚的生物技术工业，而且有利于整个社区，特别是那些无法获得现代医疗设施的偏远地区的社区。

This project aims to better understand the mechanisms of immune induction of a novel lung vaccination strategy. The ability to deliver vaccines that induce potent lung and body wide immune responses in a safe and efficient manner has wide implications for both human and animal health. Ultimately, the vaccine will be delivered to the lung as stable dry powders in an attempt to negate the need for a transport cold chain and therefore facilitate the distribution of the vaccines to remote areas. The project will not only benefit the Australian biotechnology industry but also the community at large and in particular those in remote areas without access to modern medical facilities.
