Monoglycosylated Chimeric Hemagglutinin as Universal Flu Vaccine
Professor Chi-Huey Wong had previously led a group thinking from outside of the box and created a mono-glycan H1N1 flu vaccine that proved effective against multiple flu subtypes. They have outdone themselves again, and this time, they came up with a breakthrough development of a universal an-ti-influenza vaccine using a designed chimeric hemagglutinin (HA) protein...
