Infection & Immunity for MIM 426 - Fall '11
Course Director: Edward P. Cohen , M.D.
Course Objectives:
Students learn the basic properties of medically relevant bacteria, viruses and fungi and how these organisms cause disease. Clinical aspects of infectious diseases are stressed. In addition, aspects of the immune response such as autoimmunity, hypersensitivity defects in the immune system, and cancer immunology are discussed. A majority of the important pathogens are covered in detail with emphasis on integrating the properties of the microbe, epidemiology, mechanisms of pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and disease outcome. The laboratory sessions are designed to introduce the student to diagnostic principles as well as reinforce information obtained in lectures. Interactive case presentations will be given to lab groups to focus on infectious diseases.
