| Synopsis: |
This collection of stories looks at the people who have charted new territory in the world of immunology and the work each has done. The researchers and their ground-breaking work have enabled us to understand how the immune system works and begin to understand autoimmune diseases. Alan Baxter describes what we currently know about the weapons of our immune systems and how they target infection and disease. The focus then turns to individual scientists and the remarkable discoveries which have contributed to our understanding of the way in which the immune system recognizes and fights infections, including: immunological tolerance; graft-versus-host disease; recirculation of lymphocytes; and the role of the thymus. |
