Neuroimmunology
Neuroimmunology is the field of science that focuses on the interactions between the nervous system and the immune system. It examines how the immune system can impact the function of the brain and spinal cord, as well as how the central nervous system can in turn affect immune responses. Researchers in this area study various diseases and conditions where these systems interact, such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and autoimmune disorders. By understanding the relationship between the nervous and immune systems, scientists aim to develop new treatments and therapies for a range of neurological and immune-related disorders.
