Solid knowledge in cellular and molecular biology is mandatory (e.g., primary cell culture, real-time PCR, flow cytometry). Basic knowledge in genetics or histology would be desirable. Please provide evidence (e.g., by submitting a list of courses/modules that you already attended). |
Lernorganisation |
Lecture: - Regulation of innate and adaptive immune responses in healthy individuals - Dysregulation of the immune system in inflammatory diseases, cancer or autoimmunity - Impact of the environment on immune regulation Seminar: - Presentation and discussion of laboratory methods used in the practical part Exercise: This module involves working on small research projects in groups of 2-3 students. The projects include basic immunology in humans and mice with the goal of better understanding the development of allergy, sterile inflammation or autoimmunity as well as immune regulation during cancer or infection. Using the knowledge of immune regulation gained in the lecture and seminar, students will analyze and evaluate specific scientific problems. Required methods of immunology, cell and molecular biology (e.g., flow cytometry, cell separation, isolation and culture of primary immune cells, gene expression studies, histology) are taught and used. |
