What it covers

This unit will review the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders associated with excessive, defective, or unwarranted immune responses. Disorders which will be covered include autoimmunity, inflammatory and infectious diseases, allergy, immunodeficiency, cancers, and transplant rejection. Current scientific research into and use of novel disease treatments that modulate the immune system, as well as improved diagnosis will also be reviewed. Skills will also be developed in searching and critically reviewing the literature and in both written and oral scientific communication in relation to clinical immunopathology.
