# Training Program in Neuroimmunology

> **NIH NIH T32** · OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY · 2022 · $158,917

## Abstract

Neuroimmunology is the interdisciplinary study of interactions between the immune system and the central
nervous system in health and disease. The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center is a unique training
environment in this context because the faculty mentors of the proposed training program have expertise that
covers all major aspects of basic and clinical Neuroimmunology. The goal of this training grant is to provide
comprehensive training across key areas of relevance within the field of neuroimmunology including
neurotrauma, autoimmunity, stress, neural development, aging, and biological rhythms. Students will enter the
program either soon before or immediately after successful completion of their candidacy exam. These
students will have an opportunity to work in a highly collaborative research environment with established
mentors and clinical partnerships. Thus, we are unique nationally in terms of crossing the boundaries of
traditional neuroscience and immunology training, and therefore are positioned to offer students an exceptional
training experience in Neuroimmunology that will extend beyond the conventional training experiences that
currently exist within “umbrella” graduate training programs. Trainees will engage in unique program-specific
learning and professional development experiences including course-work, clinical experiences/mentorship,
and professional networking with scholars in the Neuroimmunology field. These trainees will be a benefit to the
national neuroscience and immunology communities based on their advanced graduate training experience
that is augmented by a translational experience with the clinical pairing. Our TPNI students will be positioned to
excel as post-doctoral fellows and will be competitive for future faculty positions.
