Target Audience

This course is intended for the science professional or graduate student looking to learn the fundamental science and key considerations that are examined in immune safety assessment. Advanced topics and courses that take a deeper dive into specific scientific areas will be offered and recommended for the more experienced scientist with a firm grasp of the information highlighted in the introduction module.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe how various inherent factors affect the immune system (e.g., hormones, sex, age, etc.)
  • Describe how additional factors (e.g., disease-specific, drug interactions, etc.) can affect the immune response
  • In drug development, explain how this makes assessing the immunosafety challenging
  • Briefly comment on personalized medicine and evaluation of individuals' "immune profile"
