The remainder of the course will focus on vaccine strategies; the traditional killed and live attenuated, vaccines and the modern molecular approaches such as microbial vectored, DNAmediated, subunit, and synthetic vaccines. The role of antigen presentation, adjuvants, and differential T-cell and B-cell stimulation will be stressed. The course will conclude with consideration of the challenges facing vaccine development, including the belief of many parents that vaccine use leads to autism and other diseases, financing vaccine R & D, and society’s expectations for vaccines.
