In the 3rd episode of our immunology 101 series, we talk about the birth of the immune system and faith of an immune cell after it has served its function. We also touch upon the role of stem cells and how differentiation works at the genetic and epigenetic level. Check out our memes on Facebook (@antibuddies) and Twitter (@antibuddiesP).
