BIOL 338 - Immunity and Pathogenesis

FC NSMA QFR
4 credits
Our immune system protects us against pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites, and also plays important roles in normal body functions including recognizing and eliminating cancer cells. In this class, we will examine the many functions of the immune system in health and disease, with particular focus on the innate and adaptive components of the mammalian immune system. We will also learn how pathogens subvert immunity, which can result in infectious diseases and how we can use our knowledge of the immune system to treat a variety of diseases. This is a variation of BIOL 337 without the laboratory component.
Prerequisites & Notes: BIOL 213
