We will conduct a new dimensional vaccine research and development program where we generate multi-dimensional immunomics and provide novel technology modules towards the optimal vaccine development to shoot at the Achilles’ heel of the target antigen of pathogens, allergens, cancers, and any other immunologically relevant diseases.
