The Department has teaching responsibilities on
every year of the undergraduate MBBS course, including lectures, tutorials, project
supervision, organisation of modules and examinations. The Intercollegiate MSc in
Medical Immunology of London University is also co-ordinated from the
Department.
The Department provides a complete clinical immunology laboratory service. The Joint
Effort Appeal has been launched to build the St Georges Arthritis Centre on a prime
site in a central location in the Hospital.
