Tropical Infectious Diseases - Pathogenisis and Vaccine Research

疟疾、链球菌病和疥疮是主要影响世界各地大量土著人民的传染病，目前尚无疫苗。这项工作的目的是针对这些疾病开发疫苗或其他生物预防措施，需要解决的问题是相似的。该团队包括具有长期合作历史的传染病生物学资深专家，以及对合作具有令人印象深刻的资历的年轻成员。提出的工作的第四个主题涉及用新化学方法制造这种疫苗的创造性新方法。它已经成为发表的关于链球菌疾病的合作工作的主题，同样适用于其他主题。

The diseases on which three themes of the work proposed centre, malaria, streptococcal diseases and scabies are infectious diseases largely affecting indigenous people in various parts of the world on a massive scale, for which there are no vaccines. The aim of the work is to develop vaccines or other biological prevention measures against each of these diseases and the problems that need to be solved are similar. The team includes senior experts on thebiology of infectious diseases with long histories of collaboration as well as younger members with impressive credentials that are new to the collaboration. The fourth theme of the work proposed is concerned with inventive new ways of making such vaccines by novelchemical methods. It has already been the subject of published collaborative work onstreptococcal disease and is equally applicable to the other themes.
