The Human Immune System

INTRODUCTION
 

Welcome to my webpage about the Human Immune System. This site is designed to assist your understanding of the way our immune system responds to certain stimuli but in particular, bacterial and viral infections or diseases.

Here you will learn about the different structures and functions of the immune response and the subdivisions of the immune system - specific and non specific responses. We will also learn about the immune system's ability to discriminate between 'self and non self'.

I have also covered one particular aspect of the immune system in detail, which is Multiple Sclerosis.

Difficult terminology is highlighted in bold and defined in the "Key Terms" area for your understanding.

To find out more, use the navigation menu on the left to browse the different areas of the site and read all about how our immune system works.
