Introduction

The Department of Immunology at the University of Health Sciences is dedicated to advancing knowledge in the field of immune system biology, its role in health, and its involvement in diseases. Established with a vision to integrate cutting-edge research with high-quality teaching, the department provides comprehensive academic and practical training to undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral students.

Our faculty members are actively engaged in research on a wide range of topics, including host–pathogen interactions, autoimmune disorders, cancer immunology, vaccination, and novel immunotherapeutic strategies. The department also offers state-of-the-art laboratory facilities that support hands-on training and foster innovation in basic and translational immunology.

Through teaching, research, and collaborative projects, the Department of Immunology strives to produce skilled professionals who contribute to healthcare, diagnostics, and biomedical sciences at the national and international levels. We are committed to nurturing curiosity, critical thinking, and research excellence to address global health challenges through the lens of immunological science.

Vision and Mission

The purpose of the program is to excel in teaching and research in various areas of basic and clinical immunology. Train students (M.Phil. and Ph.D.) in modern principles of research and provide an encouraging and stimulating environment to foster learning in the discipline of Immunology. Disseminate up-to-date knowledge of immunology by organising journal clubs, seminars, and symposia.
