In this course you will explore foundational concepts in immunology, including both the innate and adaptive immune systems, and the key molecules and cells of these immune systems. You will examine diseases where there is dysfunction of the immune system, including autoimmune diseases, inflammation, and cancer. You will learn about the treatment of disease by therapies that target the immune system, including immunomodulators and protein- and cell-based biologic therapies and vaccines, and explore some of the broader issues associated with the production and use of biologic therapies.
