Course content

23 sections • 64 lectures • 6h 6m total length

  • immunology step by step0:56
  • Introduction3:46
  • How to study immunology ?why it is difficult?4:06

    View the immune system as a team effort of innate and adaptive players working together to defend against invaders, focusing on the big picture first.

  • overview of the immune system5:22
  • fundamental prosperities of the immune system1:28
  • cells of the immune system5:35

    Trace hematopoiesis from bone marrow to myeloid and lymphoid pathways, introducing innate and adaptive immune cells like neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells, natural killer cells, and T and B lymphocytes.

  • B maturation in bone marrow1:19
  • immunology physical barriers0:47
  • immunology history lecture13:12

    history of immunology immunity means a state of resistance or in susceptibility to disease actually the term immune is drive it from the Latin word immunitas that means exception from military service or paying texts to this date the meaning of the term however has been modified and is applied now to define Estate or resistance to possible Attack by infatuation the branch of biology dealing with this phenomenon is called immunology

    although immunology is new science   it has old roots  which involves the observations and disease prevention trial made by people and the scientists in their ancient times  more than 5000 years ago Egyptian recognized and the bowl of immunity to diseases some leaders sniff dry crusts of small box lesions to protect themselves from illness

    About 1500 years later a similar sniffing practice most common in China

    long time ago in China individual who survived snakebites could resist the same or similar snakes

    this observation has been adapted for Protection of people against snake bite  sneak venom mixing with oily base who's applied on the skin and found to confer some resistance against intoxication by snake venom

    in China and Greece it has long been recognized individuals who recovered from epidemic diseases make disease such as a small box where resistant to further attack

  • immunology history lecture 21:35

    Trace the origins of immunology from razi's smallpox description to early acquired immunity theory, then the variolation practice and Jenner's 1780 vaccination with cowpox.

  • immunology history lecture33:00

    Trace the history of immunology from attenuation and vaccination by Pasteur, Jenner, and Mechnikov to humoral and cell mediated immunity, with phagocytosis, antibody, opsonization, and complement.

Description

Have you ever wondered how your body detects and destroys invading microbes, prevents cancer, or remembers a past infection?
“Immunology Step by Step” is a comprehensive, easy-to-follow guide to understanding how the immune system works — and what happens when it fails.

This course simplifies one of the most complex subjects in medicine. You’ll explore how the innate and adaptive immune systems cooperate to defend the body, how antigens trigger immune responses, and how antibodies, cytokines, and complement proteins orchestrate protection and repair. Each topic is explained visually and sequentially to build strong conceptual understanding before moving into clinical relevance.

We’ll also uncover how immune mechanisms relate to autoimmune diseases, allergies, cancer immunity, transplantation, and immunodeficiency. You’ll see how the same principles guide modern breakthroughs such as vaccination, immunotherapy, monoclonal antibodies, and diagnostic immunology.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Identify the major organs and cells of the immune system.

  • Differentiate between innate and adaptive responses.

  • Understand antigen recognition and immunoglobulin function.

  • Explain the mechanisms of inflammation and immune regulation.

  • Relate immune principles to clinical and laboratory applications.

Whether you are a medical or biology student, a healthcare professional, or simply fascinated by the science of defense and disease, this course will help you gain the clarity and confidence to apply immunological principles in study, research, or practice.

Join now and begin your structured journey into the fascinating, ever-evolving world of Immunology — one step at a time.

Who this course is for:

  • Students who are considering or attending medical school or other health-related professional programs (nursing, pharmacy, PA) – including those at the high school, undergraduate, and postgraduate levels Professionals looking to improve knowledge for work on health care applications, projects, and research Curious learners with sufficient prerequisites (biology, chemistry, physics) who want to know more
