Prerequisite: IMM334Y/335Y
Co-requisite: JBI428H


IMM430H1
The Immune Response 26L

A study of the cells involved in the immune response, the nature of cellular and molecular interactions that govern immunity and self tolerance, the nature of the effector cells in immunity and genetic control of immune responses.

IMM435H1
Practical Immunology 72P

Application of basic principles acquired from IMM334Y/335Y; immunological procedures used in research and diagnostic laboratories; rudiments of etiology, pathogenesis, and laboratory diagnosis of diseases of immune system; principles of immunological diagnostic procedures in some infectious diseases; instruction through lectures, practical exercises, video tapes, student presentations.
Prerequisite: BCH210H/242Y, IMM334Y/335Y


IMM450Y1
Research Project in Immunology 154P

An opportunity for specialized research in Immunology under the supervision of a member of the Faculty. There are no pre- or co-requisites, although preference is given to Immunology Specialist students.
