Seminar: Immunology Classics (7C0752)
This seminar deals with the biological basis of immunity and how we know about it through experiments. By looking at classical publications the central concepts of Immunology will be introduced. The class requires reading of several papers per week and the preparation of summaries and flow charts. For students of Biology, Biochemistry and Medicine (Wahlfach im 1. Studienabschnitt).
Tuesdays 17:00 - 18:30 or a time that fits for all participants.
Location: GH9-NB 00.005 BMC, Großhaderner Str. 9, 82152 Planegg-Martinsried.

Time: weekly at a time to be determined.

The adaptive immune system can recognize an unlimited array of molecular structures but omits the host. This unresponsivenes to the molecular self is a key feature of adaptive immunity and named immunological tolerance. The students will look at and present key papers that have dissected it.
