Research Interests

The aim of Zoltán's work is to develop vaccine manufacturing technologies capable of producing large amounts of vaccines against known and unknown pathogens, quickly, at high quality and low cost, in order to: (1) prevent the spread of epidemics and pandemics, and (2) meet changing immunization needs in low- and middle-income countries. These new and exciting vaccine platform technologies are currently being used for COVID-19/SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine production . In this work, Zoltan is currently modelling COVID-19/SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine production processes based on rapid-response platform technologies, such as the RNA vaccine platform.
