Living Drugs: Targeting microglia for neurotherapies

Microglia are the brain’s parenchymal macrophages, operating at the interface of sentinel sensing and effector function. As both sculptors and defenders of neural circuits, they offer an exceptional therapeutic opportunity. This talk will explore microglial form and function, their contributions to rare neurological diseases, and how emerging biology can be leveraged to develop microglia-targeted therapeutic strategies.
