General Information
Immunology is the study of the immune system, and it enables the students to develop an understanding on what the immune system is and how it works. In more detail, immunology allows students to have a better understanding of the immune system at various depths ranging from molecules, genes, cells, tissues, organs, and their involvement in health and diseases. Immunology is suited for students from clinical and non-clinical backgrounds. This would enable students to boost their prospectus and develop their career within academia, the industry or as clinical scientists.
A Brief History of the Department of Immunology
The Department of Immunology at Semnan University of Medical Sciences was composed of the three programs of microbiology, Parasitology and serology. Many great scientists with renowned research endeavors and inventions of novel immunological diagnostic tests have been and are members of this department.

The Department of Immunology is seeking to pursue the following research lines:
- Tumors, including immunopathology, immunotherapy, antigens, medical lab diagnoses, and escaping mechanisms;
- Transplantations, including immunopathology, genetics, immunotherapy, cell immunity, cytokines, medical lab diagnoses;
- Infections, including antigens, genetics, and medical lab diagnoses;
- Allergies and increasing sensitivity, including immunopathology, immunotherapy, genetics, humeral immunity, cell immunity, cytokines, and antigens;
- Autoimmunity diseases, including antigens, immunopathology, immunotherapy, humeral immunity, cell immunity, cytokines, and medical lab diagnoses;
- Reproduction, including genetics, immunotherapy, and medical lab diagnoses;
