The drive for the new generation of vaccine therapies has precipitated a concurrent need for new and improved adjuvantation/delivery systems for these new vaccines. This new international conference will focus on updating the community on new adjuvant/delivery systems/technologies associated with developing modern vaccines strategies and vaccine research. There is now an urgent need for the development of these potent and safe adjuvants and delivery systems and MVADS 2015 will offer researchers a fresh forum to discuss this important topic in detail.
MVADS 2015 will be of interest to researchers/contributors from academic programs, industrial, governmental and regulatory groups.
