Computational Immunology Basics | Life Science

The immune system is highly complex system with large number of macromolecules signaling pathways protein-protein interactions and gene expressions. Studies from genomics transcriptomics metabolomics are generating huge high throughput data that needs to be analyzed for understanding the Immune system in Health and Disease. Computational approaches arehelping in understanding the study of complex biology of immunology and thereby enabling design of therapeutic strategies in diseases like infectious diseases immunodeficiency allergic hypersensitive autoimmune disorders and diseases like Cancer HIV etc. Computational Immunology: Basics highlights the basics of the immune system and function in health and disease. This book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential topics including Overview of Immunology and computational Immunology Immune organs and cells antigen antibody B cell T cell Antigen Processing and presentation Diseases due to abnormalities of the immune system Cancer Biology Shyamasree Ghosh (MSc Ph D PGDHE PGDBI) is currently working in the School of Biological Sciences National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) Bhubaneswar DAE Govt of India graduated from the prestigious Presidency College Kolkata in 1998.
