Advanced Immunobiology. 3 Credit Hours

Catalog description

MICR 6052 is composed of 2 separate Modules that are designed to build on the immunological concepts covered in IBMS 5000 given in the Fall semester and to put those concepts to use as we focus on understanding the world of the mammalian host response to infection. In addition, students will gain a more detailed understanding of the current concepts, approaches, and applications of research in the field of immunology. Module 1 is devoted entirely to understanding fundamental concepts in immunology primarily through lectures and including some in-class discussion. Module 2 is focused on applying fundamental immunological concepts to the understanding of current immunological research questions in a student-presentation and in-class discussion format. Prerequisites: IBMS 5000 or consent of instructor. Open for Cross Enrollment on Space Available Basis.
