Catalog description

<p>This course teaches the fundamentals and functions of the immune system. The role of the immune system in health and disease is a vital component of life and investigations into this system introduce the student to the organs, tissues, cells, and molecules of the immune system and their relationship to disease. The immune system involves complex interactions between blood cells, chemical signals, cellular signals, genetics, and foreign &#39;invaders&#39; which allow us to merge concepts from biology, microbiology, biochemistry and genetics.</p><br><br>((Prerequisite BSC 2010 with a minimum grade of C and Prerequisite BSC 2010L with a minimum grade of C) or Prerequisite BSC 2010CH with a minimum grade of C) and ((Prerequisite MCB 3020 with a minimum grade of C and Prerequisite MCB 3020L with a minimum grade of C) or (Prerequisite PCB 3023 with a minimum grade of C and Prerequisite PCB 3023L with a minimum grade of C))
