All our speakers have extensive experience and passion for Immunology, and are keen to share their knowledge
Hon. Professor of Immunology, Australian National University, Immunopathologist at 4Cyte Pathology and was a practising Clinical Immunologist for over 30 years. Prof Fulcher has a national reputation for teaching immunology at all levels, including undergraduate, basic physician trainee and post-graduate stages. He has held every major national teaching position in Immunology and Immunopathology, including Co-ordinator of Advanced Training in Immunology, Chair of the Joint Specialist Advisory Committee in Immunology (RACP), and Chief Examiner in Immunopathology (RCPA). He was Director of Physician Training and then Network Director of Physician Training. He has convened Immunology4bpts since 2006.
A/Prof Ming-Wei Lin is a senior staff specialist in the Department of Clinical Immunology and Head of Immunopathology at ICPMR, Westmead Hospital. She co-directs the multidisciplinary Immunobullous clinic and has special interests in autoimmune disease and immunodeficiency.
Dr Dunckley is the ASHI Director and Clinical Scientist of the New Zealand Transplantation and Immunogenetics Laboratory, New Zealand Blood Service. She has extensive practical laboratory experience in the field of histocompatibility testing for solid organ and haematopoietic cell transplantation. She has served on the Board of the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ASHI) and is a Past-President of the Asia Pacific Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics Association (APHIA). She regularly teaches on the theory and application of human leucocyte antigen (HLA) typing for transplantation and for HLA linked immunological diseases.
Dr Stephanie Richards is a paediatric allergist/immunologist and immunopathologist, currently employed at the Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne. Her clinical and research interests include primary immunodeficiency, immune dysregulation and food allergies in children.
Dr Cole is a Paediatric Immunologist, specialising in stem cell transplant for primary immunodeficiency at Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne. She is current chair of the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA) primary immunodeficiency committee, chair of the ASCIA immunoglobulin replacement therapy working party and facilitator of the Transplantation in Primary Immunodeficiency (TAPID) group. Her primary research interests are in better understanding mechanisms underlying immune deficiency and improving stem cell transplant outcomes for primary immunodeficiency.
Very good introduction to immunology for those of us who have very little knowledge of it. Takes you right the way through the basics to the clinical applications.
This course is simply excellent. Most of the concepts were new to me, but they were presented in a way that was so easy to digest. I also found the course very enjoyable! I would 100% recommend this course.
I thought the lectures were fantastic - really great breakdown of the important components of basic immunology, that we're really nicely intertwined with clinical immunology. I definitely feel more confident with my immunology knowledge than prior to sitting the course.
This is an absolutely brilliant 2-day course on Immunology. So thorough, so much detail, and so well explained from the foundations upwards. I really enjoyed the reflection time and MCQs at the end of each section, giving us the chance to assess what we have learnt and how we can apply our understanding. The exam-style MCQs are perfect for this. The visual aids, schematics, graphs and diagrams are awesome. I also like the addition of videos to explain the biology in a slightly different way. Finally, Dr Fulcher's passion for the subject is palpable and infectious.
I felt like I was learning rather than simply being fed a list of facts.
Excellent thorough summary of a lot of key immunology concepts. Really enjoyed the online lecture format - very well done.
