ANIML SCI 597A - Special Topics in Immunology

The immune response is a consequence of the developmentally programmed or antigen triggered interaction of a complex network of interacting cell types. These interactions are controlled by regulatory molecules and often result in the production of highly specific cellular or molecular effectors. This course will present the principles underlying the immune response and describe the methods employed in immunological research. In addition to lectures,  a program of seminars will provide an introduction to the research literature of immunology.  (Off Campus - Amherst College)
