Immunology Case Studies
Welcome to my Immunology Case Study Collection — a growing resource designed for educators who are passionate about bringing immunology concepts to life through patient-centered learning. Each case study is crafted to encourage critical thinking, integrate foundational and clinical immunology, and support active learning strategies in the classroom.
All case studies are available for free download and educational use. I invite you to adapt them to fit your curriculum, spark discussion, and deepen student understanding of immune system dynamics in health and disease.
Targeting Cancer with Immunotherapy
​Follow the case of Kevin Thompson, a 52-year-old construction manager diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer. This case study guides students through the role of the immune system in cancer detection, tumor immune evasion, personalized medicine, and the use of immunotherapy for treatment. Ideal for integrating immunology, oncology, and clinical decision-making concepts.
