Evaluation and optimisation of paediatric vaccination programs in Australia and the region

疫苗在预防感染方面非常有效。越来越多的疫苗可供儿童和国家免疫规划使用。需要进行研究，以确保纳入国家规划的疫苗是有效和安全的。我们还必须了解为什么有些儿童没有接种疫苗，并评估提高接种率的方法。该奖学金将以流感和肺炎球菌病这两种常见疾病为重点，解决这些尚未解决的问题。

Vaccines are highly effective in preventing infection. Increasing numbers of vaccines are available to children and to national immunisation programs. Research is required to ensure that vaccines included in national programs are effective and safe. We must also understand why some children are not vaccinated and to assess ways to improve uptake. Focusing on two common disease, influenza and pneumococcal disease, this fellowship will address these unanswered questions.
