Obiettivi Formativi
Understand the basic concepts of immunology and the role of the immune system in protecting the body.
Identify the various components of the immune system, including cells, tissues, and organs.
Explain the mechanisms of innate and adaptive immune responses.
Analyze the cellular and molecular basis of immune recognition and activation.
Discuss the interactions between the immune system and infectious agents.
Investigate immunological disorders and the underlying causes.
Explore different immunotherapies and their applications in disease treatment.

Prerequisiti
Training in the following or related areas: General Biology, Biochemistry, Physics, Calculus, Organic/Inorganic Chemistry. Training in Molecular Biology is recommended but not required.
Metodi didattici
Lectures supported by presentation of slides in Power Point.
Key topics will be also supported by specific presentations, discussions and critical reading of the most recent research and review papers published in relevant journals in the field.

Verifica Apprendimento
The student will be given the opportunity to illustrate live and independently the contents, mechanisms and decision-making paths acquired during the course. For this reason, the assessment of learning will take place through a final oral exam in person with a grade expressed out of thirty; there are no ongoing tests. Three questions will be asked: one in a conversational form, one in the form of a direct question and answer and one based on the description of a pattern or a pathological morphofunctional aspect among those illustrated in class and contained in the recommended textbook.

Altre informazioni
The course adheres both to the Innovative and the Inclusive teaching programs of the University and therefore it will be supported by tutoring or supplementary teaching activities, carried out on a one-to-one basis with on-line calls or with small class live meetings, upon requests by any student and in accord with the tutor's and the teacher's supervision. One limitations only will be put: tutoring activities will be not held during scheduled lesson hours.
The professor will provide to disabled students the most suitable (excluding the textbook) teaching material, such as video recordings that deal with the exam topics and, when possible, will use teaching methods that encourage group activities. In a word, all lessons will be recorded, but will be made available upon request. The course is not a distance learning one, but promotes integration between students from all over the Worls. and will adhere to intellectual property regulations. Teaching material apart video lessons will be available to registered students on the Kiro E-learning platform. Video lessons will be recorded on a lesson-by lesson basis and available to the student upon request.
On the whole, course will be held live, including exams, but learning and evaluation could take advantage, upon request, of innovative and inclusive teaching methods, including e-learning ones.
