The University of Hyderabad is pleased to share the publication of Immunotherapies for Neurological Disorders: Unlocking the Brain’s Defenses, a new volume published by Elsevier (Academic Press) and co-edited by Dr. Akash Gautam, Assistant Professor, Centre for Neural and Cognitive Sciences (CNCS), School of Medical Sciences, University of Hyderabad, and Dr. Micaela Morelli, Retired Professor, University of Cagliari, Italy.

Dr. Akash Gautam
Published in September 2026, the book examines the complex interplay between the immune and nervous systems and its implications for neurological disorders. It brings together contemporary perspectives on emerging immunotherapeutic approaches for conditions including neurodegenerative and autoimmune disorders.

Dr. Micaela Morelli
The volume covers a wide range of therapeutic strategies, including antibodies, recombinant proteins, peptides, vaccines, nucleic-acid-based therapies, immune-cell therapies, gene therapy, RNA interference, and nanotechnology-based approaches. It is intended as a resource for neurologists, immunologists, neuroscientists, researchers, and advanced students working at the interface of neuroscience and immunology.
The publication highlights the growing importance of understanding and therapeutically modulating neuroimmune mechanisms in neurological disease and represents a valuable contribution to the scientific literature in this rapidly evolving field.
The University of Hyderabad congratulates Dr. Akash Gautam and Prof. Micaela Morelli on this scholarly achievement and wishes them continued success in their research and academic endeavours.
