Antigen Delivery Platforms for Next-Generation Coronavirus Vaccines by Aziz A. Chentoufi, Jeffrey B. Ulmer, Lbachir BenMohamed

“…The development of a pan-CoV vaccine offering protection against a wide array of VOCs requires two key elements: (1) identifying protective antigens that are highly conserved between passed, current, and future VOCs; and (2) developing a safe and efficient antigen delivery system for induction of broad-based and long-lasting B- and T-cell immunity. This review will (1) present the current state of antigen delivery platforms involving a multifaceted approach, including bioinformatics, molecular and structural biology, immunology, and advanced computational methods; (2) discuss the challenges facing the development of safe and effective antigen delivery platforms; and (3) highlight the potential of nucleoside-modified mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNP) as the platform that is well suited to the needs of a next-generation pan-CoV vaccine, such as the ability to induce broad-based immunity and amenable to large-scale manufacturing to safely provide durable protective immunity against current and future Coronavirus threats.…”

Beyond periodicity: tailoring Tamm resonances in plasmonic nanohole arrays for multimodal lasing by Shadman Shahid, Muhammad Anisuzzaman Talukder

“…However, these resonances vanish when the hole arrangement shifts from a regular array to a pseudo-periodic random array, which is defined as a collection of holes placed randomly within a periodically repeating square unit cell. These multiple resonances can be attributed to the folding of dispersion lines in a periodically patterned TP cavity. …”
