BIO 366 - Immunology

4 credits (Fall or Spring)

Cross-listed as: BCM 366. An introduction to the cellular and molecular basis of vertebrate immune systems. We will explore the innate and adaptive immune systems including their components and organization and development of the immune responses. This course will build on concepts from cell biology and organic chemistry as we explore key molecular pathways of the immune system, incorporating the critical evaluation of primary literature and case studies of immune dysfunction, along with laboratory research, from design through analysis.

Prerequisite: BIO 252 or BCM 262, with grade S, C, or better.
Note: Not offered every year.
