Ep. 12 Swallow This: The Oral Vaccine Revolution
Description
In this episode of The BioDisruptors Podcast, we take a deep dive into the cutting edge world of oral vaccines and break down the science behind why the oral route approach is so promising.
However, turning a vaccine into a pill is no small feat. The gastrointestinal tract is designed to break things down, creating a hostile environment for fragile molecules like proteins and mRNA. We explore the major biological barriers and the groundbreaking strategies scientists are developing to overcome them.
Join us as we unpack the promise, the challenges, and the biotech innovations shaping the future of vaccine delivery.
