Mucosal Immunity

... is the most recent part of Immunology!

It appeared less than 40 years ago, while systemic immunity exploded 60  years ago.

It is still a minor part of Immunology teaching and research, while the mucosal immune system is at the frontline of encounters with germs, antigens... in other words the environment.
