| Improved vaccines are increasingly demanded for the protection against many infections but also in the prevention of complex diseases. Improvements of immune responses, adjuvant activities, the use of antigen presenting cells or delivery systems are aspects of work in the department of microbiology and biotechnology, Prof Werner Lubitz at the University of Vienna. |
