Grant Activity:
Using Big Data to Engineer Highly Immunogenic Hepatitis C Virus Envelopes for the Induction of Broad Neutralising Antibodies
Purpose:
There is an urgent need to develop a preventative vaccine against hepatitis C, a virus that causes chronic life-threatening disease in millions of people globally. This project will bring together intelligent big data design methods and innovative experimental models to engineer panels of viral antigens for eliciting antibodies capable of neutralising diverse virus strains. The findings can be used to design new hepatitis C vaccines aimed at preventing virus infection and chronic disease.
