Manipulation of neuroimmune responses and behaviour by infectious agents

University of Leeds Faculty of Biological Sciences

This project is available exclusively to self-funded students who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2023/24. The project focuses on how infectious agents modify the individuals that they infect and how neuroimmune responses to infection moderate behaviour changes in warm-blooded animals and humans.

Helminth products as macrophage “trainers”: a novel tool to induce anti-inflammatory trained immunity

Kingston University Faculty of Health, Science, Social Care and Education

The innate immune system can display characteristics of immunological memory. This phenomenon, termed “trained immunity”, refers to the long-term functional reprogramming of innate immune cells after the encounter with infectious or non-infectious agents that influences their capacity to respond to a secondary stimulus.
