Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to share the good news that the MDPI journal Life has launched a Special Issue entitled "Frontiers in Neuroimmunology".
"Frontiers in Neuroimmunology" is dedicated to promoting and improving the basic and translational knowledge of how the human nervous system and immune systems interact and how these interactions lead to disease processes and the progress of and prognostication of these disorders.
Neuroimmunology plays a key role in four leading disorders (stroke, migraine, dementia, and neurotrauma) responsible for nearly 80% of death and disability in low to middle-income countries with an opportunity to improve care globally.
The COVID-19 pandemic is a timely reminder of the importance of neuroinflammation in brain health given the shared pathobiology of COVID-19, acute stroke, and many other acquired neurological disorders.
We welcome your submissions to "Frontiers in Neuroimmunology".
Prof. Dr. Tissa Wijeratne
Guest Editor
