For over a decade, Nova Southeastern University's Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine (INIM) has been at the forefront of raising awareness about neuro-inflammatory illnesses. Our multidisciplinary team of scientists and clinicians, specializing in endocrinology, neuroscience, nursing, nutrition, pharmacology, genomics, and computational modeling, collaborates to unravel the complexities of chronic conditions such as Gulf War Illness (GWI), ME/CFS, and Long COVID.
Through transitional research, we bridge the gap between laboratory discoveries and patient care, seeking to alleviate the debilitating symptoms of these multisymptom illnesses, ultimately improving patients' quality of life.
Mission Statement: The Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine at Nova Southeastern University strives to advance knowledge and care for people with complex neuro-inflammatory illnesses through the integration of research, clinical care, and education.
Struggling with chronic illnesses like Long COVID, ME/CFS, or Gulf War Illness? You're not alone. Our podcast offers hope and practical advice. These complex conditions share similar symptoms but often have different causes. We'll provide insights from experts to help you navigate your health journey.
You can find the podcast on most streaming platforms by searching, "Hope & Help for Fatigue & Chronic Illness." New podcast episodes are available every Tuesday at 8 a.m. ET.
