Einstein-inspired Isobar vaccine cooling system wins UK James Dyson award

Designed to keep temperature-sensitive vaccines stable in transit in remote regions, Will Broadway's Isobar is based on invention from early 1900s

A portable cooling system for temperature-sensitive vaccines which could save millions of lives in developing countries has won its 22-year-old designer a prestigious James Dyson award.

Will Broadway, an industrial design and technology graduate from Loughborough University, developed the Isobar system for his final degree project after seeing the huge waste of valuable vaccines, which lost their potency as a result of inadequate storage and transportation conditions in remote regions.
