Neuroimmune Circuits Driving Allergic Immunity

The Immunobiology Seminar Series presents: "Neuroimmune Circuits Driving Allergic Immunity"

Presenter Details

Caroline Sokol, MD, PhD
Assistant Professor
Medicine 
Harvard Medical School 


The Sokol lab investigates the neuroimmune circuits that underlie allergic diseases, with a particular focus on how sensory neurons detect environmental allergens and coordinate immune responses. Dr. Sokol's team has identified novel mechanisms by which neurons recognize allergens based on their enzymatic activity, how innate immune cells promote neuronal allergen detection, and how cytokine signaling shapes neuronal responsiveness.
