Innate immunity acts as a first line of defense and can destroy invading microorganisms and trigger inflammation that contributes to blocking their assault, days before the action of adaptive immunity. While adative immunity was the major focus of researchers in the XXth century, the sensing of the exogenous or endogenous dangers signals was recently described, as well of the action of numerous cells. This MOOC describes the players and the whole orchestra involved in innate immunity against pathogens.
This MOOC is organized in 6 chapters. Each chapter is composed of 4 to 7 sequences. In each sequence, you find a 10 minute video and a multiple choice test to help students check their understanding. The videos are in English subtitled in French and in English.
