Neuroinflammation

Immune activity can protect the brain, while persistent dysregulated inflammation is associated with neurological disease.

Why it matters

Research into neurological health can help explain disease burden, human physiology and opportunities for future scientific work. The underlying mechanisms are complex and many questions remain unresolved.
