Foundations in Virology and Vaccinology Specialization

Virus/Vaccine elements, Infection Prevention/Cause. Explain the fundamentals of vaccinology in the context of what vaccines are and how vaccines protect us; identify different vaccine types and differentiate between the different applications of vaccines; explain the fundamental principles of virology whilst recognising the diversity of virus structure and differences in approach required to detect and track viruses amongst different populations; and assess the different approaches to the treatment of viruses, and contrast this to vaccine protection.
