Molecular Immunobiology

The objectives of the course are:

·     To acquire knowledge on the field of Molecular Immunobiology
·     To gain knowledge about the structure and organization of the immune system
·     To understand the basic principles of the immune system’s function and regulation
·     To study and get insight into the complex mechanisms underlying the innate/natural and adapted/acquired/specific immune responses

LEARNING OUTCOMES:
After successfully completing the course, students will acquire the following knowledge, skills and competencies:
·     They should know the basic principles of the structure, organization and function of the immune system
·     They should know and understand the complex molecular mechanisms underlying immune responses
·     They should be able to examine and analyze comparatively immune responses of innate immunity vs. adaptive immunity
·     They should be able to examine, analyze comparatively immune responses underlying humoral vs. cell-mediated immunity
·     They should know and understand the basic and novel strategies and experimental technologies used in Molecular Immunobiology
They should be able to solve problem-based questions in the field of Molecular Immunobiology
