Couverture de l’ouvrage Neurobiology of Infectious Diseases

Neurobiology of Infectious Diseases covers mechanisms underlying infectious diseases. It is divided into six distinct sections, beginning with the foundations of Neuroinfection. This section includes chapters on the role microbiota-gut-brain axis and specialized blood-neuronal barriers play in neurobiology of infectious diseases. The next three sections detail various bacterial infections, parasitic infections, viral infections, and fungal infections of the central nervous system. The last section reviews the proteins and other peripheral mediators that affect the central nervous system. Internationally contributed by experts in the field this book sets the foundation of neurobiology and infectious disease. Neurobiology is the study of cells of the nervous system and the organization of these cells into functional circuits that process information and mediate behavior. Current research is vital for determining pharmaceutical and medicinal treatments for neurological disorders, psychiatric disorders and diseases.

Tatiana Barichello, PhD, assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, is making strides in the field of immunology psychiatry. With a background in pharmacy, she brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the study of psychiatry and behavioral sciences. A researcher with the Translational Psychiatry Program, Barichello explores ways to apply research to clinical practice in treating mental disorders. Much of her work is performed in a lab, looking closely at cells and how they respond to “intruders,” such as bacteria and viruses that must be fought off by the immune mechanisms within the brain. “By studying inflammation and seeing the patterns in pre-clinical animal models of psychiatry,” she says, “we are finding ways to apply these insights to treating humans.” Barichello received her master’s degree in Biological Sciences (Biochemistry) from Federal University of Santa Catarina and earned her PhD in Biological Sciences (Biochemistry) in from Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, RS, Brazil. Prior to joining the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences in 2014, she was director of Pharmacy Faculty and professor of Postgraduate Program in Health Sciences at the University of Southern Santa Catarina, Criciúma, SC, Brazil. In addition, Barichello has been over 100 publications and has received several grants as a principal investigator.
Dr. Felipe Dal-Pizzol’s research efforts are focused on translational research in sepsis, mainly on the mechanisms of brain dysfunction, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. He has ongoing collaborative studies in other research areas such as the biology of psychiatric disease. I have authored more than 320 peer-reviewed publications and specifically, in the sepsis field more than 100 peer-reviewed publications. During the last years, He has been an associated editor of some peer-reviewed scientific journals such as PLoS One, Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Brazilian Journal of In
