CMM437 - Immunology Basics
Course Description
The immune system integrates with all organ systems of the body, providing defense against pathogenic microorganisms and cancer, while contributing to homeostasis of many pathways throughout the body. For these reasons, any career path in biomedicine requires a basic understanding of the immune system in health and disease. This course is intended as an introduction of immunology for all students, and as necessary background for students who plan to study immunology and related fields. This course will provide pre-health science professions students (Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, Public Health, etc.), as well as students planning a career in biomedical research, with a valuable grounding in the basic concepts of human immunology.
