The Committee on Immunology - Activities


Committee on Immunology Seminar Series

The Committee on Immunology seminar series is held Mondays of the Autumn, Winter and Spring Quarters of the academic year from 4:00-5:00 pm. in the Biological Sciences Learning Center (BSLC), Room 115, unless otherwise noted.  The seminar series brings prominent Immunologists from all over the world to campus to discuss their research in a public forum, and meet with Immunology faculty and students.
