We seek to understand the role of the immune system in brain development, and thereby the ways in which immune activation during early brain development can affect the later-life outcomes of neural function, immune function, mood and cognition. A particular focus is on microglia, the primary immunocompetent cells of the CNS, which are involved in multiple aspects of normal brain development and function.
