This course introduces the cellular and molecular mechanisms of vertebrate immunity in health and disease. Topics include the evolution and organization of the immune system, innate and adaptive immune responses, immune cell development and communication, and the dysregulation and therapeutic manipulation of immune responses. Lectures, case studies, and primary literature will be used to explore fundamental immunological concepts and their applications to human health. Laboratory experiments will examine immune cell function and introduce current immunological techniques through guided exercises and independent projects.
