Abstract

Conventional vaccine production techniques are outdated, leaving the world defenseless to viruses and pathogens. Successful protection necessitates the innovation of strategies that can generate an induced defensive humoral and cellular response with: ease of mass production, nominal side-effects, and controlled design specificity, all while being cost effective. Fortunately, technology exists to facilitate such advances in this billion dollar industry and this review is focused on recent publications and patents which hold promise to revolutionize the fight against pathogenic illnesses.
