The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
This project will generate novel vaccines that elicit cell-mediated immunity against influenza infection. The vaccines are totally synthetic and therefore not constrained by the limitations in manufacturing which currently confront egg-grown vaccines. These vaccines induce very strong immune responses because they target dendritic cells which are pivotal for induction of all immune responses. This targeting capability is due to a simple lipid molecule incorporated into the vaccine which is recog ....This project will generate novel vaccines that elicit cell-mediated immunity against influenza infection. The vaccines are totally synthetic and therefore not constrained by the limitations in manufacturing which currently confront egg-grown vaccines. These vaccines induce very strong immune responses because they target dendritic cells which are pivotal for induction of all immune responses. This targeting capability is due to a simple lipid molecule incorporated into the vaccine which is recognised by specific receptors on the surface of dendritic cells and also causes their maturation, a step which is essential for recognition by the immune system of potential pathogens. The technology to design and assemble these new vaccines is already.Read moreRead less
