AbstractNon-technical Description: Many vaccine production and delivery systems remain dependent on a cold chain requirement, which prevents millions of people from receiving vaccines annually. To increase the availability of current and future vaccines, the vaccine cold chain needs to be eliminated. While sugars and bulking agents are being explored to increase the thermal stability of viral vaccines, the cold chain is still the main method to stabilize viral vaccines. This is not only an issue for dev
