Explore immunology concepts in this comprehensive lecture from the Serrapilheira/ICTP-SAIFR Training Program in Quantitative Biology and Ecology. Delve into topics such as resistance, villus structure, T cell origins and movement, infection detection mechanisms, and T cell communication with epithelial cells. Examine resistance against transformation, pathogen sensors, peripheral tolerance, and current bacterial sensing techniques. Learn about milk's role in immunity, methods for measuring immune responses, and cell transfer processes. Gain insights from experts Carolina Lucas of Yale University School of Medicine and Daniel Mucida of The Rockefeller University in this in-depth immunology class.
