NCCIH Integrative Medicine Research Lecture: Bacteria Get on Your Nerves: How Bugs Modulate Pain and Immunity
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) presents the Integrative Medicine Research Lecture Series. The series provides overviews of the current state of research and practice involving complementary health approaches and explores perspectives on the emerging discipline of integrative medicine. Dr. Isaac Chiu is Assistant Professor of Immunology, Department of Immunology, Harvard Medicine School. Dr. Chiu's research focus is in uncovering interactions between the nervous system, the immune system, and microbes, in health and disease. Dr. Chiu will also discuss other aspects of bacterial interactions, e.g., how bacteria act on neurons to ensure their own survival, or how neurons regulate microbes to protect their human host from invading pathogens.For more information go tohttps://nccih.nih.gov/news/events/IMlecturesAir date: 6/10/2019 11:00:00 AM
