Veterinary and human vaccination in health; welfare and environmental protection; immune defence against disease; animal models in vaccinology; vaccine design and antigen selection; mucosal vaccines; cancer vaccines; bioengineering and novel vaccine delivery systems; and vaccine related pathogen diversity.

This course is for:

• Research Scientists
• Programme Managers

• Veterinarians
• Those from industry and academia who already work in the field and for those who are seeking to enter it

We will provide state-of-the-art teaching in both veterinary and human vaccinology, drawing on the experience of the world-renowned Jenner Institute, based in Oxford. Uniquely, we will focus on diseases of both humans and livestock. A major theme will be translational research involving the rapid early-stage development and assess¬ment of new vaccines in clinical trials.
