Inspired by the pioneers Adolfo Lutz, Vital Brazil and Carlos Chagas, Brazilian Immunology was born and became extremely broad and multidisciplinary, always in partnership with other disciplines such as Parasitology, Biochemistry, Physiopathology or Genetics, and constituting an important branch of what is now called Toxinology. Today, the general scenario of Immunology in Brazil represents an example that is perhaps unique in the world of integrations with other areas of knowledge.
受先驱阿道夫·卢茨、维塔尔·巴西和卡洛斯·恰加斯的启发，巴西免疫学应运而生，并变得极为广泛且多学科化，始终与寄生虫学、生物化学、生理病理学或遗传学等其他学科合作，构成了如今所谓毒素学的一个重要分支。如今，巴西免疫学的总体情况堪称一个范例，在与其他知识领域的整合方面，这在世界上或许是独一无二的。
