This course covers the basics ofhow the immune system works and the pathophysiology of the most important immune disorders. Peter Delves, PhD, is a Professor Emeritus of Immunology who has written several books and lab manuals, and has extensive teaching experience. He will lay out the cells and function of the innate and adaptive immune system and explain humoral and cell-mediated immunity. In the second half of the course, you will learn about pathologies includingimmunodeficiencies, hypersensitivity, and autoimmune diseases.Special attention will be given to transplantation, tumor, and vaccine immunology.
The combination ofVideo Lessons with interactive quiz questions, downloadable study materials, and a USMLE-style Qbank makes it easy to understand and retain the topics. By the end of this course, you will be confident in your understanding of the human immune system, as well as feel prepared to start diagnosing and treating its disorders.

Immunology focuses on the study of the components of the immune system and the factors that affect its function. More specifically, the field looks at the pathophysiology of immunodeficiencies,hypersensitivity reactions,organ transplantation, cancer, andvaccinations.
The immune system can be defined as a collection of tissues spread throughout the body and dedicated to its protection through the innate or adaptive deployment of cellular and humoral resources for the control of infection.
