Explore the complexities of the immune system in "Immunology: Immune Failures and Cancer Immunology" offered by Imperial College London. This comprehensive course delves into the causes and consequences of a failing immune system, providing insights into immune deficiencies and their impact on the body. Discover the relationship between tumour and immune cells, and the role of viral infections in human cancer.
Throughout the course, you will gain an understanding of primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, including the implications of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Delve into the world of tertiary lymphoid structures, examining their potential in immunotherapy and their association with inflammation. Furthermore, the course sheds light on tumour immunology, elucidating the mechanisms behind tumour cells, cancer, and the immune system. Uncover the intriguing link between human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) and cancer.
Additionally, the course addresses viral persistence and its connection to human cancer, providing insights into oncolytic viruses in anti-cancer treatment. Through practice quizzes and in-depth modules, you will broaden your knowledge of immunology, immune failures, and cancer immunology, equipping yourself with valuable insights into the complexities of the immune system and its impact on disease.
