Course description

As a required subject in the curriculum of biomedical engineering, this lecture provides innate immunity and acquired immunity using immune cells. Based on them, we also study allergy and infectious disease.

Expected Learning

Students are expected to understand the basic concepts of biological defense mechanisms based on innate immunity and acquired immunity and also understand types of allergies and infectious disease. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the Curriculum maps.

Course schedule

Week 1: Outlines of immunity Week 2: Virus and infection Week 3: Outlines of biological defense mechanisms Week 4-6: Immune cells: neutrophils, T cells, B cells, NT cells, macrophage, and dendritic cells Week 7: Structure of antibody, and antigen-antibody interaction Week 8-9: Innate immunity: physical or chemical defense, and innate immunity Week 10-12: Acquired immunity: cell-mediated immunity, and humoral immunity Week 13-14: Allergy and infectious disease Week 15: Summary Examinations
