Research

The Levy Lab is focused on understanding the immunopathogenic mechanisms of rare autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system including neuromyelitis optica, transverse myelitis and MOG antibody disease. We have expertise in animal models of these diseases which we also use to study pathogenic mechanisms of autoimmunity. The goal to translate our findings to human trials is driven by the unmet need in the neuroimmunology clinic.
