Fortunately, a quantum leap in technology has revolutionized the study of influenza and the engineering of new vaccine strains by reverse genetics. This volume provides a historical background and state-of-the-art information about the recent advances in the biology of influenza and the design of new influenza vaccines.Birkhäuser advances in infectious diseases.Influenza vaccinesInfluenzaInfluenza virusesElectronic books.Influenza vaccines.Influenza.Influenza viruses.614.5/18Rappuoli Rino897544Del Giudice Giuseppe6182MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910451475703321Influenza vaccines for the future2229686UNINA
