So i have a presentation in immunology coming up in 2 weeks and I was wondering if any of you have ideas on a topic?
It can basically be on anything as long as I describe the immunological pathway involved.....
it can be a current relevant topic or an immunological disease
I cant seem to find a topic myself despite looking through my WHOLE immuno book, so just looking for some ideas

you could choose a viral pathogen that invades intracellularly and talk about CD8 T cell activation.
ive got an immuno exam coming up tomorrow. good luck with the class!

the janeway CD is quite helpful tho

oh i know! janeway is the txtbook my class is using, and without the cd...id probably be lost. it simplifies things really well.

Find a disease that you find fascinating. If I had to do this presentation I would choose a flesh eating disease.

Or an extracellular pathogen and talk about CD4 cells, interleukin 4 and 5 signalling B-cells to grow and differentiate into plasma cells and to secrete antibodies.

You could talk about hypersensitivities

Non-specific defense vs specific defense...there are so many options, you should find something easily. Immunology rules!!!!

you could talk about endocarditis and the immune pathway involved. a decent chunk of your presentation could even involve teeth!
