Abstract
Pandemic viruses constitute an existential threat to the health and economic well being of communities, highlighted by recent experience with SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza. An improved and fundamental understanding of protective immunity against pandemic threats is critical to guide the design of the next generation of vaccines and drugs. This project seeks to help define the rules that maximise immune protection and translate this knowledge into efficacious countermeasures for the next pandemic.
