Course objectives
At the end of the course, students should be able to understand current methodologies in experimental biology and medicine, which are based on the principles of selected functions of the immune system.
Learning outcomes
The outcome of this course will be that the student will be able to: understand, explain and interpret the most important current methods based on the principles applied within the immune response. Students will be able to theoretically propose the use of the most important methodologies used in immunological laboratories, both experimental and clinical.
