: C.P.T and S.G are named as inventors on a patent application for an influenza vaccine targeting the epitope conformations outlined in this paper (PCT/GB2017/052510). It should be noted in the interests of full disclosure that S.C.G is a co-founder of Vaccitech, a spin-out company from the University of Oxford, which is developing an MVA-NP + M1 influenza vaccine. However, the MVA-NP + M1 vaccine as well as Vaccitech are entirely separate from and in no way are connected to the work undertaken in this paper as well as the vaccine proposed in the paper. All other authors report no potential conflicts.
