疫苗學概論

The class integrates the fundamental knowledge of molecular biology, biotechnology and immunology into introduction to vaccinology. Fragmented information and cumulative experiences contribute to the learned knowledge including knowledge of vaccine. The syllabus of the class covers different topics including current well-known effective vaccines, on-going developing vaccines and the challenging tasks in vaccine development to deliver the strategic concept and process of vaccine development as well as protective mechanism. 

本課程是結合分子生物學、生物科技及免疫學的基本知識,並加以整合應用的概論。由於許多知識是藉由片段的資訊及經驗累積,包含疫苗的認知。為了能使學生了解疫苗的開發策略、製作流程、功效評估及保護機制,本課程將藉由不同單元來介紹目前已知的高效率疫苗及現階段研發的疫苗和可能面臨的挑戰。
