[color=#080808][size=2][font=宋体][font=Times New Roman]Astrocytes are not just passive support cells; they are dynamic entities that play dual roles during neuroinflammatory processes. While they can exacerbate inflammation by releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species in response to injury or disease, they also act protectively by secreting anti-inflammatory factors and maintaining the integrity of the blood-brain barrier. This intricate balance between promoting and resolving inflammation positions astrocytes as a focus for therapeutic strategies aimed at treating neuroinflammatory disorders.[/font][/font][/size][/color]

[color=#080808][size=2][font=宋体][font=Times New Roman]The esteemed guest speaker, Dr. Francisco J. Quintana, a leading expert in neuroimmunology, will guide participants through the complex landscape of astrocyte functions. Dr. Quintana is a Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School's Brigham and Women's Hospital and an Associate Member at The Broad Institute. With numerous awards and over 200 peer-reviewed publications, his research sheds light on the biological pathways that govern inflammation and neurodegeneration.[/font][/font][/size][/color]
