Project details

Short description

In this interdisciplinary program, we will explore the complex interactions between the nervous system and the immune system along the gut-brain axis, which could play a central role in neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. Particularly exciting is how inflammatory processes in the gut can modulate neurological disorders—a topic that provides new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of such diseases. This cutting-edge research field is also being intensively investigated by our new Clinical Research Group KFO5024 in Erlangen, which is dedicated to this very topic.
