Systems Biology of Immunology

Introduction

This interdisciplinary lecture is divided into two parts. The first part
consists of several lectures starting with a summary of important
aspects of systems biology in general and continuing with a profound
introduction to the immune system. In the second part, various
mathematical modeling approaches are discussed in some detail and
applied to selected topics of immunology. Participants do not have to be
an expert in mathematical modeling and do not have to be an expert in
the immune system. The idea is that, whatever is needed from immunology
and from mathematics, this will be presented in the lecture. Interested
students will have a background in biology, bioinformatics, physics, or
related disciplines and are generally interested in the immune system
and in the mathematical modeling of this complex system.

Startup and Questions

The first video conference will take place on April 22, 202 from 8:30 to 11:30am via video conference. The lecture will always be held on a Friday from 8:30 to 11:30am.
