Tutorial: TBA A balanced approach to deliver a broad introduction to
the field of immunology is my aim. This will include basic
cellular and humoral immunology, development and evolution
of the immune system, immunogenetics, and some
immunopathology. Based on the surveys, the lectures and
discussion topics will be tailored to fit the class as much
as possible. [Some restrictions do apply. ;-)] Discussion sections will include a variety of activities,
including hands-on exercises with modeling, computers,
focused discussion topics, short presentations, and
reviews. Prerequisites: Completion of the
lower-division core in Biology or equivalent; one course in
Physiology upper-division core or Biochemistry, and one
course in Molecular & Cell Biology upper-division core.
Strongly recommended: a course focused on some type of
infectious disease, such as Bacteriology, Microbiology,
Parasitology, or Virology. If in doubt, please contact me.
