一、課程說明(Course Description)
<br>The course contains the principles of innate immunity, cellular and humoral 
<br>adaptive immunity, dynamic of adaptive immune system and mucosal immunity, and 
<br>the applications to vaccine development such as adjuvants, antigen character 
<br>and epitope analysis, and the new generations of vaccine development such as 
<br>viral and bacterial vector vaccines, recombinant protein vaccines, DNA 
<br>vaccines as well as new therapeutic vaccines against neoplasm, loss 
<br>individuality, and organ or tissue damages.
<br>
<br>疫苗與免疫科學課程內容主要&#38323;述先天性免疫,T細胞與體液免疫系統,免疫動態系統與黏膜免疫原理,
<br>同時就疫苗發展與佐劑的應用，抗原特性與新疫苗技術發展如活毒疫苗，次單元與類病毒顆粒疫苗，
<br>病毒與細菌載體疫苗與DNA疫苗加以介紹．同時除了針對預防性疫苗外也包括新發展的治療性疫苗應
<br>用於癌症,異體移植與自體免疫疾病, …等．
