KurzbeschreibungDiese Vorlesung liefert einen detaillierten Einblick in die
- Entwicklung von T Zellen und B Zellen
- Dynamik einer Immunantwort bei akuten und chronischen Infektionen
- Mechanismen von Immunpathologie
- neue Impfstoffstrategien
LernzielSie verstehen

KurzbeschreibungThis monthly meeting is a platform for Zurich-based immunology research groups to present and discuss their ongoing research projects. At each meeting three PhD students or Postdocs from the participating research groups present an ongoing research project in a 30 min seminar followed by a plenary discussion.
LernzielThe aim of this monthly meeting is to provide further education for master and doctoral students as well as Postdocs in diverse topics of immunology and to give an insight in the related research. Furthermore, this platform fosters the establishment of science- and technology-based interactions between the participating research groups.
InhaltPresentation and discussion of current research projects carried out by various immunology-oriented research groups in Zurich.

KurzbeschreibungStudents actively participate in ongoing research projects on the analysis of human T and B cell response to pathogens and vaccines. They will be tutored in small groups by doctoral students and postdocs. In a lecture series, the theoretical background for the projects will be provided and the students will have the opportunity to present their projects and discuss recent publications.
LernzielTo learn current methodologies in human immunology through experimental work in the lab. To learn current concepts through lectures and discussion of original papers. Requirement for obtaining the credit points: oral presentation of the research project in a ppt format.
