    study of body's defense against infections and diseases

    Immunology is the branch of biology that studies the immune system, which is the body's defense mechanism against infections and diseases. It involves understanding how the body recognizes and fights off pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and other harmful agents, as well as how it can sometimes mistakenly attack its own tissues, leading to autoimmune diseases.
