A major focus of Dr. Fischer’s research is on the impact of chronic inflammation in the brain and how it effects microglial function and microglia-neuron communication in the context of HIV infection... Webinar: Neuropathology of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Aged Non-human Primates Webinar Abstract: Neurological manifestations, including headache, altered mental status, and stroke, are a major complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). In addition, continued neurological difficulties, such as impaired memory and attention or difficulty finding or understanding words, are often reported by individuals suffering from post-acute sequalae of COVID-19 (PASC) or “long COVID”. Understanding how SARS-CoV-2 effects the brain of infected patients is critical for appropriate treatment of infected patients, as well as initiating relevant follow-up care after recovery... Learning Objectives: 1. Describe the variable neurological manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection. 2. Describe the neuropathology in brain of relevant non-human primate models of SARS-CoV-2 infection. 3. List important risk factors predisposing patients to neurological injury in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
