the Production of Stable Vaccine and Therapeutic Protein
Formulations
1) The degree of challenges associated with vaccine stabilization by spray drying is fairly dependent on the vaccine candidate under investigation (this thesis). 2) Thermally stable vaccines may not completely cease the cold chain use, but surely
hold the potential for usage of vaccines that are exposed to room temperatures during transport eg. Meningitis A vaccine, MenAfriVac® (this thesis).
3) To date no spray dried vaccines have been licensed. However, the continuous efforts from both industry (Phase 1: dry powder live attenuated measles vaccine) and academia is proving spray drying as a viable competitor to conventional vac-cine drying methods in the near future.
4) Mucosal vaccination against pertussis can be a good alternative to parenteral vaccine administration (this thesis).
5) Cooking is all about people, food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together (Guy Fieri).
6) Happiness is not something readymade, It comes from your own actions (Dalai Lama)
7) Developing excellent communication skills are needed to be a good leader but a touch of encouragement and good sense of humor brings out the best to the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done (adapted from a quote from Dwight D. Eisenhower).
