Autism microglia research
By Demian Arturo Herrera Morban
I am forming a group to submit a proposal to an NIH GRANT regarding Autism. The GRANT is R0. The deadline is 09/2019. The Main idea is state of microglia on autism. The theories behind area 2: white matter changes based on previous studies and microbiome dysbioses observed in autism. There is a link between microbiome changes, histamine and microglia that i would like to study. The group so far is composed by a pediatrics neurologist, epidemiologist and myself a pediatrician. We are currently working on the proposal draft. We are looking for someone with expertise on neuroscience specially on autism and nuclear medicine in autism for brain imaging studies.
