World of Immunology - A Comprehensive Tour
Immunology
Description
This course will introduce you to the immense power of the immune system, how we can control it, and the conditions that arise when these powers turn against us. You’ll explore the arms race between our complicated network of immune components and the equally formidable tools of pathogen and cancer. We’ll articulate the future of Immunology, exploring how this field is set to initiate the next revolution within Biology and Medicine. We’ll be able to explore a myriad of interdisciplinary topics because Immunology is one of the most interconnected sub-disciplines as well. Special emphasis will be placed on principles that carry real-life and/or medical relevance. This was is designed to be comprehensive, serving as an excellent resource for undergraduates, medical post-graduates building more knowledge in preparation for key courses and clinical rotations, and Biology experts seeking to grow their expanse.
Your purchase includes 16+ hours of Comprehensive video lectures, all PDF key info slides, and 20+ Exam questions + guided answers.
Life is a special phenomenon, possibly unique to this single planet in a massive universe. The emergence of life, consciousness, and creativity from non-living matter is one of the most important processes to ever occur, and the ability to pass on similar (but varied) instructions to offspring allows this. The interactions within and between living organisms gives us an understanding beyond ourselves and how we can apply our unique gift as humans to do the most good. Our future needs leaders that understand Immunology, Genetics, and Biology for this to take place. This class seeks to take you beyond the books to explore what about life, humanity, and everything in between makes this world special, granting attention to the powerful past and future of the immune system.
What You Will Learn!
- 1) Characterize and compare the principal components of the human immune system
- 2) Demonstrate how the immune system recognizes and responds to foreign molecules
- 3) Compare the key strengths, weaknesses, and connections between the Innate and Adaptive immune systems
- 4) Evaluate how the immune system can fail vs. pathogen, cancer, or self-recognition
Who Should Attend!
- This course is for beginner or intermediate biologists interested in adding Immunology experience to better grasp its growing role in medicine and health. That, and you can gain details that can help you on advanced MCAT Biology sections.
