Course content
The discipline covers the methodological foundations of immunological research methods in various fields of biology and medicine, assessment of the immune status of the organism in the system of experimental immunobiology and clinical immunology and laboratory diagnostics, mastering the basics of immunoprophylaxis and immunotherapy of diseases of various etiologies. An important place is given to the classification of basic methods of immunodiagnostics, means of immunoprophylaxis and immunotherapy and the basic principles of immunograms. Much attention is paid to the applied aspects of mastering the basic methodological algorithms for assessing the state of the innate immune system, determining the quantitative and functional parameters of effector cells of innate immunity, methods of qualitative and quantitative characterization of humoral and cellular adaptive immunity. normal and under conditions of development of pathological conditions.
