Project Will Investigate Critical Links between Neuroinflammation and Psychopathology

Caption

High power image of neurons (red) in the hippocampus of the mouse brain that express the IL-1 receptor (IL-1R1). Red color was generated by insertion of a fluorescent gene into the IL-1R1 gene. Both the round neuronal cell bodies and the thin, elongated dendrites that are characteristic of mature neurons can be seen. Blue color documents the presence of non-IL1R1 expressing neurons near ones that are IL-1R1 positive.
