Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Vaccination is a powerful tool for public health, but effective vaccines are still needed for many pathogens and neglected tropical diseases. To achieve this goal, it is paramount to understand how the immune system responds to infections or candidate vaccines. Effective vaccines need to induce long-lasting and protective immunity, which is mediated by memory B and T cells.
This Special Issue of Vaccines invites submissions of primary research articles, methodologies, and reviews of cell-mediated and humoral memory responses against infections or vaccines that are relevant to global health.
