Dr Richard Antrobus talks about his research in the development of a universal flu vaccine.

Progress so far indicates that this approach induces a potent T cell response, and Dr Antrobus is currently assessing whether this response is equally potent in the elderly - one of the 'at risk' groups of the Influenza virus.
