In 1998, NYNG presented a conference on "Neuropsychology and the Neuroimmune Dialogue", which emphasized the pervasive interactions of the nervous system with the immune system, as well as the implications this has for understanding individual differences in response to brain injury and fluctuating symptoms in individuals. In the past decade, these interactions and dysfunctional inflammatory processes have been implicated in a wide range of disorders: cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and many others. This year, our speakers focus on several neuroimmune disorders with cognitive and emotional alterations which clinical neuropsychologists may be asked to evaluate: Multiple Sclerosis, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and Lyme Disease. And one more which is often "co-morbid" with these, but whose neuroimmune aspects we have been slow to appreciate: Depression.
