    About the Course

    Course 2 is a four-course specialization called Fundamentals of Immunology. Each course in the specialization presents material that builds on
    the previous course's material. This is the second half of the journey through the defenses your body uses to keep you healthy. In the first part
    we learned about innate immunity and B cell function. The second part covers T cell function and coordination of the immune response.
    Fundamentals of Immunology: Complement, MHC I and II, T Cells, and Cytokines builds on the first course to describe the functions of
    Complement, MHC presentation to T cells, T cell development and signaling. The early lectures survey cells, tissues and orga...

    A very thorough and well presented course. Prof. Novotny knows her subject very well and she is a teacher at heart - not so common among scientists.

    The problem is that she goes into all the details of the subject. but fails to present the overall picture. So you learn all the details of gene rearrangement of the T cells, but at the end you find yourself confused as to the the general workings of the whole system, B cells, T cells, complement system etc. Sure, the information is buried somewhere, but it is buried under so many details that it is hard to see the wood from all the trees. I would add a short overview of the entire immunological system in the beginning, and a general summary at he end.

    This course is so interesting and fun. Not an easy A though, you'll likely have to spend a good amount of time processing the information and finding links between all of the different parts that make up T cell development and the signaling involved. Great course if you are looking to deepen your immunology knowledge, wouldn't recommend it if you have never taken an immunology course before.

    In this course, I have learnt how the T cell functions and coordinate their immune response. It was really a nice experience and the content of the videos were really good. The explanation of each and every diagram in the video has been explained very well during this course.

    Great Course. It is difficult but well worth the effort. I first studied immunology about 50 years ago, and this course brought me up to date with the current state of the basic science of immunology. The professor made it particularly interesting.
