Textbook: ImmunoBiology,by Kenneth Murphy (Janeway’s ImmunoBiology), Garland Science; 8th Edition (July 25, 2011)

This course is a half-year course which introduces the basic principles of modern immunobiology. It will focus on the generation, development and regulation of the immune system and its function in human epidemics, immunological diseases, inflammation and tumor. The aim of this course is not only to elucidate these key principles of immunology, but also to discuss its history of discovery and some major experimental techniques. The course will also introduce the close relationship of immunology to the other sub disciplines of life science and research methods. This course is not only suitable for the students who majors in life science or medical science, but is also good for the students who major in biomedical engineering who want to pick up some basic knowledge in immunology.

Exams: There're two exams for this course. Each one will count for 50% of the final score.
