Neuroscience

Franklin & Marshall Neuroscience

The human brain is a new frontier we've only begun to chart. Students pursuing the Neuroscience major in the Biological Foundations of Behavior program at Franklin & Marshall have the opportunity to significantly contribute to our understanding of the nervous system and behavior.

In close collaboration with the faculty - dedicated teachers and active researchers - Neuroscience students study the nervous system across multiple levels of analysis, from molecules to the behavior of organisms.

Our state of the art resources include newly constructed Neuroscience, Biopsychology and Animal Behavior Teaching and Research laboratories within the 100,000 sq ft Barshinger Life Sciences and Philosophy Building.

What really sets us apart, however, are the opportunities our students have to collaborate closely with fellow students and professors on significant research projects.

Throughout our curriculum students become engaged with open-ended questions and learn to tackle them directly with increasing sophistication in the application of research methodologies and a critically informed grasp of past and ongoing scientific advances in neuroscience.

Neuroscience majors collaborate in the design, execution, and presentation of research projects and advance to long-term student/faculty collaboration on projects that are funded by federal research grants. These experiences often result in students presenting their results at national meetings of professional societies in neuroscience and co-authorship in prestigious journal publications.

Sessions/Tracks

Track 1. Immune System

The Immune system is made up of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to defend against germs. The role of the immune system is to protect against disease or other potentially damaging foreign bodies. It also protects the host from a group of pathogenic microbes that are themselves constantly evolving. The immune system helps the host to eradicate toxic or allergenic substances that enter through mucosal surfaces. Central to the immune systems ability to mobilize a response to an invading pathogen, toxin or allergen is its ability to distinguish self from non-self. Both innate and adaptive mechanisms is used by the host to detect and eliminate pathogenic microbes.

Track 2. Microbiology and Cellular Immunology

Microbiology refers to all living organisms that are too small to be visible with the naked eye. This includes bacteria, viruses, fungi, archaea, prions, protozoa and algae, collectively known as 'microbes'. These microbes play key roles in nutrient cycling, biodegradation, climate change, food spoilage, the cause and control of disease, and biotechnology.

Cellular immunologyincludes the activities of cells in experimental or clinical situations. It concerns with interactions among cells and molecules of the immune system, and how such interactions contribute the recognition and elimination of pathogens. It focuses on the topics likeImmunologic deficiency states and their reconstitution Antigen receptor sitesAutoimmunity, Delayed-type hypersensitivity or cellular immunity, Transplantation immunology, Immunologic surveillance and tumor immunity,Immunomodulation, Lymphocytes and cytokines, Immunotherapy, Resistance to intracellular microbial and viral infection,Parasite immunology, Thymus and lymphocyte immunobiology.

Track 3. Autoimmunity and Inflammation

The term autoimmunity refers to a failure of the bodys immune system to identify its own cells and tissues as self. Instead, immune responses are launched against these cells and tissues as if they were foreign or invading bodies. Inflammationis a process by which the body's whiteblood cellsand substances they produce protect us from infection with foreign organisms, such as bacteria and viruses. Multiplesclerosis, the most common nerve disease in young adults, is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the nervous system that is believed to be due to a misguided autoimmune attack on myelin, a protective coating on nerve cells. In multiple sclerosis, myelin is slowly eroded by the body's immune system, leading to problems with muscle coordination and vision. As the disease progresses, for some reason inflammation decreases, but lasting damage has already been done to body tissues.

Track 4. Antigen processing and presentation

It is the process by which antigen-presenting cells digest proteins from inside or outside the cell and display the resulting antigenic peptide fragments on cell surface MHC molecules for recognition by T cells is central to the body's ability to identify signs of infection or abnormal cell growth. As such, understanding the processes and mechanisms of antigen processing and presentation provides us with crucial insights necessary for the design of vaccines and therapeutic strategies to bolster T-cell responses.

Multiple sclerosis, the most common nerve disease in young adults, is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the nervous system that is believed to be due to a misguided autoimmune attack on myelin, a protective coating on nerve cells. In multiple sclerosis, myelin is slowly eroded by the body's immune system, leading to problems with muscle coordination (because muscles require the action of nerves) and vision. As the disease progresses, for some reason inflammation decreases, but lasting damage has already been done to body tissues. Researchers suspect that the autoimmune trigger in multiple sclerosis may be infection by a virus or other microorganism, but this has not been proven beyond doubt.

Track 5. Clinical and Translational Immunology

Clinical immunology is defined as study of diseases and disorders that may occur as a result of weak immune system including failure, aberrant action, and malignant growth of the cellular elements of the system. It also includes diseases of other systems, where immune reactions play a part in the pathology and clinical features. Application of immunological discovery to the delivery of effective immunological solutions for the benefit of health and wellbeing is termed as translational immunology. For instance the development of vaccines against infectious diseases or the engineering of new types of drugs to treat inflammatory disorders.

Track 6. Immunology and Diseases

Immunology refers to physiological functioning of the immune system in states of both health and disease; malfunctions of the immune system in immunological disorders (autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivities, immune deficiency, transplant rejection); the physical, chemical and physiological characteristics of the components of the immune system in vitro, in situ, and in vivo. Several approaches has been developed by the immune system to control viral and bacterial infection, which range from direct killing of pathogen to elaborating cytokines that inhibit replication. Pathogens have countered by developing a variety of immune evasion mechanisms that inhibit cytokine function and prevent immune recognition of infected cells.

Track 7. Transplantation Immunology

Transplantimmunology is defined as the immune response that occurs when an organ or tissue is moved (grafted) from one individual to another. Transplantation is the act of transferring cells, tissues, or organs from one site to another. The malfunction of an organ system can be corrected with transplantation of an organ (eg, heart, lung, kidney, liver or pancreas) from a donor. The immune system has developed elaborate and effective mechanisms to combat foreign agents. These mechanisms are also involved in the rejection of transplanted organs, which are known as foreign by the recipient's immune system. However, the immune system remains the most formidable barrier to transplantation as a routine medical treatment.

Track 8. Cancer Immunology and Immunotherapy

Cancers are not just masses of malignant cells but complex rogue organs, to which many other cells are recruited and can be degraded by the transformed cells. Cancer immunology is the study of theimmune systemin the progression and development ofcancer; the most well known application iscancer immunotherapy, which utilizes the immune system as a treatment for cancer. Immunotherapyis treatment that utilizes certain parts of a persons immune system to fight diseases such as cancer. This can be done in a couple of ways: Own immune system stimulation, Biological therapy orbiotherapy. These developments incancerimmunotherapyare the result of long-term investments in basic research on the immune systemresearch that continues today.

Track 9. Ecoimmunology and Behavioural Immunity

Ecoimmunologyis the combining aspects ofimmunologywithecology,biology,physiology, andevolution. Ecological Immunology assumes that immunological defenses must be minimized in terms of cost (energy expenditure). Studying the causes and consequences of investment in immune function, termed ecological immunology, has transformed multiple realms of biology, including behavioral ecology, disease ecology and life history evolution. Behavioural immune systemcomprises psychological processes that infer infection risk from perceptual cues, and that respond to these perceptual cues through the activation of aversive emotions, cognitions and behavioural impulses. These processes have significant implications for human social cognition and social behavior.

Track 10. Immunogenetics

Immunogenetics is a branch of Immunobiology which is defined as subspeciality of medicine that studies the relationship between genetics and immunology. It comprises the study of normal immunological pathways and the identification of genetic variations that result in immune defects, which may result in the identification of novel therapeutic targets for immune diseases. It helps in understanding the pathogenesis of several autoimmune and infectious diseases. It comprises all processes of an organism, which are, on the one hand, controlled and influences by the genes of the organism, and are, on the other hand, significant with respect to the immunological defense reactions of the organism.

Track 11. Neuroimmunology

Neuroimmunology is the study of the interaction between central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and immune system. Neuroimmunology contributes to development of new pharmacological treatments for several neurological conditions. Neuroinflammation and neuroimmune activation have been shown to play a role in the etiology of a variety of neurological disorders such as stroke, Parkinson's andAlzheimer'sdisease,multiple sclerosis,pain and AIDS-associateddementia. Cognitive neuroscience becomes a very major method to understand human cognition, meanwhile results can clarify functional brain organisation, such as the operations performed by a certain brain area and the system of distributed, discrete neural areas supporting a particular Psychological representation.

Track 12. Infection and Allergy

Infection refers to invasion of the body by a foreign organism. Infection ranges from mild and self-limiting (colds or most cases of food-poisoning) to life-threatening (cholera, tuberculosis). The severity of a given infection may vary according to the patient - many infections which are mild in healthy young adults may be very dangerous to babies or old people.
