Abstract
Seasonal influenza vaccination is an important strategy to prevent serious disease in the elderly, but individual responsiveness to vaccination widely vary. Here authors establish, with an array of state-of-the art methods, the major immunological parameters that distinguish vaccine recipients developing robust antibody response and non-responders
