The ImmunoX faculty take particular pride in offering our students the following courses

• Micro 204. Molecular and Cellular Immunology
  ‍This is an introductory, graduate level course open to students from BMS, PIBS, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, and other UCSF graduate programs.
  
  Course Director: Qizhi Tang (Qizhi.Tang@ucsf.edu)
  
  Topics: Mechanisms of innate immunity, inflammation, immunoglobulin gene rearrangements, cell biology of antigen presentation to T-cells and of lymphocyte trafficking, antigen and cytokine receptor structure and signal transduction mechanisms, lymphocyte development and activation, mechanisms of cell-mediated killing of infected and neoplastic cells, whole organism immune response to infection, and diseases of the immune system, including allergy, autoimmunity, and AIDS. Includes discussion of translational topics such as CAR T cells and mechanisms of cancer immunotherapy, and approaches to vaccine development.
• Grad School Minicourses
  Minicourses are offered in the spring quarter of the first year in conjunction with other graduate programs. These courses are typically two to three weeks in length and are more focused on a narrow topic with in depth review of primary literature in a discussion group setting. ImmunoX aims to ensure that there are least three immunology minicouses per year on a rotating basis.
