A recent Medgadget article discussed a new type of vaccine that doesn’t require cold chain for transport. The vaccine, which was developed by researchers at the University of Queensland and Vaxxas, comes via a high-density microarray patch for a minimally invasive delivery without the use of needles.

A video with more information can be seen here.
