    The Search for Better Health Challenge Question 4!

    Yes, but the term "third line of defence" is really just a term we use to make immunology more "understable" for high school students in the context that these cells are specific. In Scientific literature, you rarely see it being used.

    Start Making a Good PIP!

    I have been the S&C Moderator for three year and every year students concern about issues like “What is an interesting topic that I can do?”, “is my topic novel enough?”; and even “Where do I start?!!” So I have decided to write a piece on how to address these concerns as I *finally* got some...

    Kidney functioning?<

    Yes the causes are definitely relevant. Some kidney diseases are of autoimmune in nature, some are genetics. Diabetes may have an indirect effect on the kidneys but I wouldn't use that as a "cause" of kidney diseases.
