Laura’s PhD focuses on the ‘Development of New Vaccine Manufacturing Platforms’. The project will investigate and produce new and modified cell expression technologies for the manufacturing of vaccines with the aim of developing platforms for the production of cheap, rapid and high quality vaccines. The vaccines will target Dengue fever and other diseases relevant to GCRF countries.
