Summary
Neural regulation of immunity following brain injury. Following a brain injury, the brain tries to protect itself by blocking all inflammation. However, this renders the host with impaired immunity and increased risks to infections. The project aims to delineate the mechanisms behind this response, with the expected outcome of highlighting the important interplay between the nervous and immune system.
