Immunology of Cancer and Infectious disease is for advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in pursuing a deeper understanding of immune mechanisms in health and disease.  We will largely use primary literature to understand concepts in infection immunology (vaccination, anti-viral/anti-bacterial responses) and in cancer immunity (cold vs hot tumors, tumor microenvironment and immunotherapy).
