  • Description:This activity uses the MHC Haplotypes models to engage learners in a series of group-based simulations that are designed to improve understanding of MHC-antigen interactions, the difference between individual and population-level MHC haplotypes, and how population-level MHC haplotypes change over evolutionary time as a population interacts with pathogens.

Lesson Overview

This activity uses the MHC Haplotypes models to engage learners in a series of group-based simulations that are designed to improve understanding of MHC-antigen interactions, the difference between individual and population-level MHC haplotypes, and how population-level MHC haplotypes change over evolutionary time as a population interacts with pathogens.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of this activity, students will be able to:
  1. Differentiate between individual and community haplotypes
  2. Predict how MHC haplotype will be shaped over evolutionary time by a pathogen
