Virology Lectures 2021 #14 - Adaptive Defenses

The adaptive immune system, in contrast to intrinsic and innate defenses, is tailored to the pathogen and has memory. In this lecture we examine how B and T cells are instructed by the innate immune system, how antibodies and cytotoxic T cells are made, and their roles in preventing and resolving virus infections. Includes explanations of rapid tests for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and antibody therapy for COVID-19 patients.

– Who Am I? –

I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor.

I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this YouTube channel I share videos of my lectures, podcasts, and more.

New videos are uploaded multiple days a week.

I don’t monetize my videos because it’s disruptive to learning. If you would like to support our work, go over to https://www.microbe.tv/contribute/
