Abstract

The NANO-SARS-CoV-2 project, coordinated by Isabelle Dimier-Poisson (UMR 1282 - INRAE - University of Tours), concerns the development of an anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine platform made up of biocompatible nanoparticles encapsulating the antigenic candidates S and N of SARS-CoV-2, or associating viral-like particles (VLP) of SARS-CoV-2, in order to induce humoral and cellular immune responses at the level of the mucosal and systemic compartments. It aims to deliver a nanoparticulate mucosal vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV-2.
