Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Traditional vaccines can be classified as inactivated vaccines, live attenuated vaccines, and subunit vaccines given orally, via intramuscular (IM) injection, and via subcutaneous (SC) injection. Recently, recombinant protein vaccines, DNA vaccines, mRNA vaccines, and multiple/alternative administration route vaccines have been developed for human use to make vaccines more secure and effective. These vaccine platforms have been developed using various biotechnologies, such as adenovirus vectors, nanoparticles, mRNA, recombination DNA, and other vaccine delivery systems.
In this Special Issue, we are inviting contributions related to advances in biotechnologies applied in vaccine research. It will explore the biotechnologies applied in the development of vaccine research and platforms. We welcome original research articles and reviews. Research areas may include vaccines, biotechnology, vaccine vectors, DNA, mRNA, subunits, novel adjuvants, and delivery systems. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Yuan-Chuan Chen
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed.
