In this subject you study pathogens, antimicrobials, and the immune system, as well as Laboratory tests. This is like CELS191 or BIOC192 labs a little bit.
There is overlap between immunology and haematology, as you can understand a lot with what is going on with the immune system trhough strudying the blood. They are called white blood cells for a reason
