Despite the fact that until relatively recently everything related to the field of Psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology was unknown, continuous research and advances in science have made it possible to confirm that there is an intimate connection between the immune system, behavior, the central nervous system and the endocrine system. As a result, the idea that the immune system was self-regulating was discarded, accepting the paradigm that interactions with the rest can interfere positively and negatively with the patient's health.

The success of the therapies and treatments applied in this field with millions of patients has led to an increasing demand for professionals specialized in this area who can perfectly handle the latest and most effective techniques. For them, TECH and its team of experts have created this postgraduate diploma in Psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology. It is a program that delves into the basics of Neuropsychology, as well as the principles of Functional Neuroanatomy. Thanks to the course of this 100% online qualification, the graduate will acquire a broad and up-to-date knowledge of the latest developments in this discipline, and will be able to implement the best strategies in the management of patients with various psychological pathologies in their professional practice.

For this purpose, a virtual classroom will be available 24 hours a day and throughout the week, which can be accessed from any device with an internet connection. In it, you will find a syllabus, designed by experts in Psychology and Immunoendocrinology, as well as complementary readings, research articles, detailed videos, dynamic summaries and images to contextualize the information and delve into each section in a personalized way.

Postgraduate Diploma in Psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology

Psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology (PNEI) is a discipline that studies the bidirectional interaction between the nervous, immune, endocrine and psychological systems, and how this interaction can affect health and disease.

PNEI argues that psychological stress can impact the response of the immune system by regulating gene expression in immune system cells and altering the anti-inflammatory and anti-infectious function of those cells. Therefore, PNEI studies the relationship between psychological stress and autoimmune diseases, infections, allergies, psychiatric disorders, cancer, among other pathologies.

The origin of PNEI is multidisciplinary, intermingling concepts from psychology, neuroscience, immunology, endocrinology, genetics and epigenetics. The study of PNEI is developed through basic and applied research, and is carried out through the use of tools such as clinical psychology, psychological assessment, neuroimaging, cytokine analysis, among other techniques.

Psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology has allowed the development of new explanatory models for a variety of biological processes and diseases, and has facilitated an integrative approach for the treatment of patients with pathologies associated with psychological stress, such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and depression, among others. Through PNEI, not only the symptomatology of the disease is addressed, but also the psychological and emotional factors that may have contributed to its onset and development.
