Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), produced by , is the most toxic protein known, capable of causing severe paralysis and posing a significant bioterrorism threat due to its extreme lethality even in minute quantities. Despite this, there are currently no FDA-approved vaccines for widespread public use. To address this urgent need, we have developed an innovative vaccine platform by fusing the neuronal binding domain of BoNT/E (Hc/E) with core-streptavidin (CS), resulting in a stable CS-Hc/E vaccine.

We developed a mathematical model for allo-hemodialysis as a potential blood purification method for the treatment of SNJ in term or near-term infants. With allo-hemodialysis (allo-HD), the neonate's blood flows through hollow fibers of a miniature 0.

The burden of meningitis poses great challenges for neurology and global health, manifesting with a range of symptoms from mild fever and headaches, to severe long term complications such as paralysis and cognitive impairment.. Unfortunately, those living in endemic regions, especially survivors, are often confronted with the harsh reality of reduced quality of life as measured by disability-adjusted life years.
