Announcement
Pathogenesis of Neuroimmunologic Diseases Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA, USA, August 17–29 1997 For advanced graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty in neurosciences and immunology and for residents in neurology, neurosurgery, or psychiatry. Established investigators in any of these fields will benefit from the course. A two-week program of lectures and discussion will describe the application of genetic, molecular, and cell physiologic concepts and techniques in current use in immunology and neurophysiology to the analysis of pathogenesis in the better known neurologic and psychiatric diseases thought to have an immunologic basis. The presentations will deal both with the mechanisms underlying the disease process and lesion formation and with their physiologic consequences. The sessions will be supplemented by demonstrations of patients with typical neuroimmunologic disease at health care institutions and of relevant viral and autoimmune models in animals. Directors: Celia F. Brosnan, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and Jack Rosenbluth, New York University School of Medicine.
