Funded Activity Summary

As the incidence of vaccine preventable diseases declines, adverse events following vaccination become increasingly important for both public and providers. This fellowship aims to improve our understanding of the risks of vaccination, potential causes, including genetic predisposition and long term clinical outcomes. A range of epidemiological, clinical and genetics studies will be performed. All these studies are targeted to understand who, what, how and why vaccine reactions occur and what can be done to prevent or manage them better.
