Principles of Neuroimmunology

2 Credits · Level: Graduate

The interplay between the innate and adaptive immune systems can provide valuable insights into mechanisms that underlie the physiology and pathology of inflammation, a hallmark of almost most diseases of the brain. This course will provide the current understanding of how the intersection of neuroscience and immunology can provide us with the knowledge to discover modern strategies to understand the immunomodulation of neural functions, and neuromodulation of immune activities, in order to develop therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.
