The Department of Immunology, at the University of Toronto, is pleased to offer this online course, which teaches the fundamentals of Immunology.

In this video, you'll learn about what influenza is, how it makes you sick, and how the seasonal influenza vaccine is made. Video by: Natalie Cormier (nataliecormier.com)

In this video, you'll learn how the Influenza virus causes illness, and how being vaccinated against Influenza (the "flu-shot") can protect you from getting sick.

This movie describes how Shigella flexneri, which is the causative agent of bacillary dysentery, gains entry into the host through M cells and then disseminates throughout the intestinal epithelium to cause inflammation and diarrhea.

This movie details how lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria binds to Toll-like receptor 4 to initiate cell signaling.

This short video describes how lymphocytes migrate through lymphatics which allows them to encounter foreign antigen and stimulate an immune response. Lymphocytes, such as B cells and T cells, play a vital role for the immune system to protect our bodies from infectious disease. Video by Heather Ambraska (BHSc, MScBMC, MD)..

This short video describes B cell development in the chicken. B cells produce antibodies that bind to infectious organisms (viruses, bacteria, parasites) and play a vital role for the immune system to protect chickens, as well as us, from infectious disease.

This short video describes how MHC class I molecules are assembled and delivered on the surface of cells to present petides to T cells. This allows T-cells to determine whether the cell is iinfected with a virus by allowing a T cell to essentially look inside the cell. The immune sytem, T cells and MHC class I molecules play a vital role in protecting our bodies from infection. Video by Diego A...

This short video describes how the binding strength of antibodies are increased. This process is called affinity maturation of the antibody response and occurs in B cells within the germinal center. This process is regulated by the enzyme activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). B cells, which are part of the immune system, play critical roles in the clearance of pathogens from our bodies. ...

This short video describes how T cells are made in the thymus. The immune system, and T cells, play an important part to recoginize and clear pathogens from our bodies. Video by Janice Yau. Brought to you by the Department of Immunology and Biomedical Communications at the University of Toronto.
