Dr. Miller's talk, titled "Combining Immunoregulatory and Myelin Repair Strategies for the Effective Therapy of the EAE Model of Multiple Sclerosis," will take place on April 28, 2011, at 4 p.m. in the Medical Sciences Building auditorium on USA's main campus.
Dr. Miller's laboratory investigates cellular and molecular mechanisms of the immunopathogenesis and specific immunoregulation of CD4+ T cell-mediated autoimmune responses employing two lab models of multiple sclerosis.
Dr. Miller received his B.S. degree in microbiology in 1969 and his Ph.D. in immunology in 1975 from Pennsylvania State University. He then conducted postdoctoral work at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver. In addition, he served on the faculty at the University of Colorado from 1978 to 1981.
