Assignment:

Choose a disease that affects the human body. Describe the symptoms and mechanisms of the diseases, including how the immune system acts to defend against this disease and how this disease bypasses the critical protections of our immune system. Last, be sure to mention treatment options, including both current approaches and anything new under development (gene editing/therapy, nanotechnology, etc.)

In response to your peers, ask questions about the disease that your classmates have discussed. Have you heard of this disease? Is there additional information that you can add? You should also answer any questions that the class asks about your disease. This is an introductory course for non-science majors, so you are not expected to be experts on these diseases; however, you should be able to provide a basic understanding of the disease.
