Course
Objective:The course is designed to let the students understand the
molecular basis immunity and immune cells function. This course will discuss
about the immunoglobulins, complement proteins, TCR and other similar markers,
MHC/ HLA genes and antigenic structure, ABO and other grouping systems, tumor
antigens.
Course
