Course summary
This program has an emphasis on research training in infectious disease pathogenesis and protection. The emergence of new pathogens, the increasing development of drug resistance and the threat of bioterrorism have combined to create an increased demand for investigations into the mechanisms of disease and the body's ability to combat these diseases. Specialized areas within the Center for Immunology and Microbial Disease include immunology, microbial and viral pathogenesis, and molecular mechanisms responsible for human disease.
