    Edward Jenner is considered the father of immunology for pioneering the smallpox vaccine in the late 18th century. Robert Koch made important contributions in the late 19th century by identifying the causative agents of tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax and providing experimental support for the germ theory of disease. Charles Maitland conducted early experiments with inoculation against smallpox in the 17th century. Recent research has focused on using biocompatible gel scaffolds to deliver cancer immunotherapies and vaccines directly to tumors by releasing drugs and trained immune cells at the target site before dissolving.
