Higher Research Tasks Unit 4 - Immunology & Public Health Outcomes 2.2 & 2.3

Outcome 2.2 & 2.3 You must choose an application An application is a deliberate act carried out by humans You should both use your knowledge and understanding of Biology and your research of your chosen topic to: Describe the application (2.2) Describe the biological issue in terms of the effect on the environment or society (2.3) Your report should be between 100-150 words. There is no penalty for exceeding the word count

Unit 4 Topic ideas Case studies on hay fever, anaphylactic shock and allergic asthma. (Key area 2) Case study: comparison of the transmission methods of different pathogens, eg measles (air borne), HIV (body fluids) and cholera (water or food). (Key area 3) Case study: Mass vaccination programmes (TB, polio, smallpox) and the eradication of diseases. (Key area 4) Case study on HIV including the public health measures and drug therapies for its control. (Key area 4)
