Bio:
Michael Irwin, M.D. holds the Norman Cousins Chair for Psychoneuroimmunology at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior and is a Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. He is Director of the UCLA Cousins Center in Psychoneuroimmunology, Director of the Training Program in Psychoneuroimmunology and Mental Health, and Director of the Inflammatory Biology Core of the Older Adults for Independence Center.
|
Research Interest:
Mind-body and health
His research is broadly based on the interactions between behavior and immunity, with an emphasis on the consequences of major depression on immune processes relevant to infectious disease risk as well as inflammatory disorders. More recently, Dr. Irwin and his colleagues has studied the immunologic and health consequences of insomnia, with evaluation of the reciprocal links between inflammatory cytokines and disordered sleep in clinical populations. His present research program also includes investigations examining the capacity of mind-body interventions to improve insomnia with consequences for inflammatory mechanisms and viral specific immunity in older adults and in cancer survivors
