Grant Activity:
The Neuro-Immune Synapse
Purpose:
Not surprisingly, the two most complex ‘supersystems’ of the body – nervous and immune - ‘talk’ to each other. This project deals with how nerves ‘talk’ to immune cells via what we term the ‘neuro-immune synapse’. Nobody has seen this in action, but we propose to do so. We will image the process in live anaesthetised mice with fluorescent nerves and immune cells engineered to give an optical signal when activated. We then plan to identify the neurons that drive this pathway.
