­DESIGN OF A UNIVERSAL INFLUENZA VACCINE CANDIDATES VIA ANTIGEN REORIENTATION
­DESIGN OF A UNIVERSAL INFLUENZA VACCINE CANDIDATES VIA ANTIGEN REORIENTATION Researchers at Stanford have developed a novel universal influenza vaccine candidate. Vaccines are a major feat of biomedical innovation. Successful vaccines produce broad humoral immunity to a pathogen to prevent subsequent infection. In this vein, adjuvants are compounds...

TESTING DEVICES
TESTING DEVICES Researchers at UCSF have developed new methods and a device for at home disease testing. At home testing for SARS-CoV2 using lateral flow technology has been integral to pandemic containment efforts across the globe. Lateral flow diagnostics in general are widely available in point-of-care settings, such as for viral or bacterial...
