AbstractThe broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project is to advance a novel vaccine platform to develop engineered vaccines that provide longer lasting protection against infectious diseases. Several current vaccines face challenges in reliably protecting populations against rapidly evolving pathogens where prior exposure negatively impacts vaccine effectiveness. This project develops an innovative approach aimed at boosting the immune response
