AI Summary

A University of Cambridge team used an AI‑guided method to design a broad‑spectrum bird‑flu vaccine that achieved complete protection in animal trials against a range of globally circulating variants. In the same experiments, existing bird‑flu vaccines stockpiled by several governments protected only about half of the animals exposed to multiple strains. The new vaccine therefore outperformed the current stockpiled shots, offering full immunity where the older formulations showed limited efficacy.
