Course content
This discipline is a selective immunological discipline, the purpose of which is to form in students the theoretical basic knowledge necessary to determine the complex processes of interaction between the nervous, immune and endocrine systems according to physiological norms and various pathological conditions and damage to the neuroimmunoendocrine system; mechanisms of development of neuroimmunoendocrine disorders in diseases of the central nervous system (CNS).
