Intended learning outcomes

1- The immune system is one of the most important system of living organisms, without this system the organism can not survive because of the environmental conditions that surrounding it that filled with visual and microscopic organisms, cause many diseases that leading of the end of his life so this science should be taught so that the student can understand the mechanism of this system. To understand the relationship between the antigen and the body defense , must be studied in a laboratory to take appropriate treatment

2- Education- immunology slides are used in teaching laboratories to help student learn about the relationship between antigen and components of immune system.

3- Research: it is important in research fields all subjects related to the medicine
