This textbook provides an easy-to-understand introduction to the complex topic of vaccine
research and development. It gives a comprehensive though clearly arranged insight to the most
important aspects of molecular vaccinology leading from the basics in immunology to design of
vaccines and mode of action of vaccines to the actual formulation manufacturing and
registration of vaccines. The volume is therefore a valuable text about modern vaccinology for
graduate students and a basic introduction for newcomers in vaccine design and development.
