Immunopathology: Third International Symposium.

Abstract

<i>Immuno pathology</i>is a collection of 26 papers by different authors detailing their research. The papers were presented at the Third International Symposium on Immunopathology. The Symposium was held at Scripps Clinic and Research Foundation, La Jolla, Calif, in January, 1963.
