Neuroimmunology
Neuroimmunology: is a field that studies the interaction of neuroscience, the study of the nervous system, and immunology (the study of the immune system). Neuroimmunologists seek to better understand the interactions of these two complex systems during development, homeostasis, and response to injuries.
