Abstract

While immunobiology is not the focus of this text, some basic underpinnings are useful for motivating the so-called catalytic model to study how immunity may build up with age, how age-specific heterogeneities may affect this, and how we can use immune data to back-calculate key dynamic quantities. There are two main branches of the adaptive immune system—the part of the immune system that helps to build a repertoire for protection against reinfection.
