Lessons Learned from Cutting-Edge Immunoinformatics on Next-Generation COVID-19 Vaccine Research.

ABSTRACT

Presently, immunoinformatics and bioinformatics approaches are contributing actively to COVID-19 vaccine research. The first immunoinformatics-based vaccine construct against SARS-CoV-2 was published in February 2020. Following this, immunoinformatics and bioinformatics approaches have created a new direction in COVID-19 vaccine research. Several researchers have designed the next-generation COVID-19 vaccines using these approaches. Presently, immunoinformatics has accelerated immunology research immensely in the area of COVID-19. Hence, we have tried to depict the current scenario of immunoinformatics and bioinformatics in COVID-19 vaccine research.
