Program Learning Outcomes
The Department of Microbiology and Immunology offers a program of training leading to the PhD degree, as well as research training, courses, and seminars for medical students and postdoctoral fellows. Research interests focus on two broad areas: host-microbe interactions and the function of the immune system. Laboratories investigate mechanisms of pathogenesis and commensalism and the physiology of viruses, bacteria, and protozoan parasites, as well as the lymphocyte function in antigen recognition, immune response, and autoimmunity.
