Immunological Basis of Disease (MEDC0068)

In this module you will learn:

How the immune system contributes to tissue damage, clinical symptoms and pathological disease.
	The link between innate immune cell activation and tissue damage.
	How cytokines mediate inflammatory immune reactions.
	The different hypersensitivity reactions and how these are related to human pathologies.
	The key immune molecules that could be therapeutically targeted in order to prevent disease.
	The importance of vaccines in protecting against infectious disease.
	The role of the immune system in cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, acute and chronic lung disease, autoimmune disease, allergic disease, transplant rejection and graft-versus-host disease.
	How the ageing immune system compares to a healthy immune system.
	The link between the microbiota and immune system development and how microbial dysbiosis is associated with human disease.
