This grant is for the purpose of supporting research aimed at understanding the evolutionary dynamics of seasonal influenza. The Granting Department is offering this funding opportunity to enhance our capacity to predict the emergence of new antigenic variants. Through this research, the goal is to enable more accurate selection of strains for the seasonal influenza vaccine. By improving the understanding of how influenza evolves, this initiative seeks to inform and refine vaccine development strategies, ultimately leading to more effective vaccines and better public health protection against seasonal influenza.
