Vaccinations have had tremendous success in the 20th century. However, in the 21st century, we are facing complex immunological issues in relation to controlling underlying infectious diseases. Therefore, new technologies are needed to develop vaccines against infectious diseases like respiratory syncytial virus, human immunodeficiency virus, and cytomegalovirus. In addition, recent emerging infections have taught us that we must prepare preventative measures in advance using our scientific abilities.
疫苗接种在20世纪取得了巨大成功。然而，在21世纪，我们在控制潜在传染病方面面临着复杂的免疫学问题。因此，需要新技术来研发针对呼吸道合胞病毒、人类免疫缺陷病毒和巨细胞病毒等传染病的疫苗。此外，最近出现的感染事件让我们明白，我们必须利用自身的科学能力提前做好预防措施。
