The power of immune system is on full display every day of our lives and has been throughout our history. As pathogens try to enter our bodies and hurt us, the immune system rises up to fight and counter new disease mechanisms that it encounters. This episode will touch on the debate over remaining smallpox samples, innate and adaptive immunity, and autoimmunity. I hope you enjoy, and please let me know if I need to clarify anything. As a B-Cell scientist I’m always a bit over-excited by these concepts. My students often need to slow me down. I hope you enjoy!
