  • Michal Schwartz (born 1 January 1950) is a professor of Neuroimmunology at the Weizmann Institute of Science and is internationally acclaimed as a path-breaking scientist in the study of Neuro-immunology, introducing the dialogue between the immune system and the brain as novel and pivotal player in life-long brain function and repair. Prof. Michal Schwartz's groundbreaking discovery has revolutionized the field of neurodegenerative diseases, and led to a transformation in searching treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, Her immunotherapeutic approach to treat of harnessing the immune system to help brain to treat terminal neurodegenerative brain diseases such as Alzheimer Disease and Dementia, is currently in expedite process of development. In her studies, she has shown, against prevailing wisdom at the time, that the immune system, supports a health brain's function, and is vital for healing and protecting the brain in case of injury or disease. Schwartz's research has not only changed the accepted scientific dogma, but laid the foundation worldwide for developing new research and treatment approaches in the field of brain disease and neurodegenerative conditions, particularly Alzheimer Disease and Dementia. She discovered new roles for immune cells in repair and neurogenesis, coining the term "Protective autoimmunity" and expanding the field of immunology in neuroscience. She has been the elected chair of the International Society of Neuroimmunology (ISNI) since 2016, and her book "Neuroimmunity: A New Science that will Revolutionize How We Keep Our Brains Healthy and Young" received an honorable mention for the 2016 PROSE Awards, Biomedicine & Neuroscience category. As of 2022 Her Google scholar Citation Index is 113. (en)
