This course is designed to present basic concepts of normal tissue morphology, 
mechanisms of cellular damage, and tissue responses to injury, 
focusing on neoplastic transformation, oncogenesis, and treatment 
of cancer as a model of the disease process. This course will also give 
a basic background to acquired and innate immune responses, and 
the interaction between these two elements. The course consists of a 
series of lectures, small group case discussions, clinical corrections,
