Henrik Salje (Cambridge) joins us to discuss how dengue risk shifts across the lifespan.
His team uses multigenerational cohorts and antigenic cartography to reveal how population immunity is reshaping its ecology, and what this means for disease risk/vaccines.

Our last seminar was so popular, we reached our Zoom capacity for attendees. Folks contacted us to say they couldn't join. Sorry! We plan to increase the capacity by a few hundred, so that this shouldn’t happen again. Thanks for your patience and your interest in these seminars!
