Section 1: Immune System Overview
Describes how the immune system’s cells and tissues work and makes the connection between what occurs naturally to the immune-inspired therapies created by the biopharma industry.
Section 2: Disease
Lists how the broad categories of disease are caused and how the immune system recognizes and fights each category. By mimicking the immune system’s “illness-fighting game plan,” researchers build better therapies.
Section 3: Components of the Immune System
Differentiates the two distinct immune systems, the nonspecific immune system and the specific immune system, which has implications in drug discovery and development.
