Microbes, Microbial Metabolism and Mucosal Immunity
Academic Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-323-90144-4 (ISBN)
This book presents the latest methods, gives broad and systematic coverage of most mucosal systems and diseases, and takes a fresh perspective that looks at the functional aspects of change in the microbiome. The study of microbiome and microbial metabolites and their roles in host mucosal immunology is a rapidly developing area of research. One major way in which the microbiome influences the host is through altered metabolism. Metabolites, readily available to the host, engender significant consequences. Microbial metabolites have been shown to impact the disease processes in both proximal and distal organs, including the brain in several neurocognitive disorders.
Dr. Tanima Bose, Institute for Clinical Neuroimmunology, University of Munich, Germany Tanima Bose has been working in the field of immunology for almost 15+ years. After finishing her PhD in the interaction of ion channels in immune cells from Leibniz Institute for Neuroimmunology in collaboration with the Clinical Immunology Department in Magdeburg, Germany, she expanded her research internationally in Singapore, USA, Australia before returning to the University of Munich, Germany. Her research focuses on the tissue-resident and memory immune cells, and their role in autoimmune, allergic, and neuroimmunological disease. She is finishing her habilitation and will continue teaching in the field of mucosal immunology. She hopes that Pharma companies will be encouraged by her translational research. Along with her academic work, Tanima Bose is very active in editing, writing, and public speaking. She has written numerous research papers (20+), book chapters (5+), protocols, and blogs and has been part of the editorial team of several journals (10+). In her free time, she likes to inspire women more in scientific activities; one example is her participation in Soapbox Science (https://munichsoapboxscience.com/soapbox-science-2020/10/).
