Learn more about the McMaster researchers behind ground-breaking infectious disease research.
Immunologists at McMaster have discovered a previously unknown mechanism which acts like a spider web, trapping and killing pathogens such as influenza or SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19.
The vaccine, made of disease-fighting proteins, could boost efficacy, use smaller doses, accelerate production of seasonal flu vaccines.
