Carlos Feleder,
M.D., Ph.D. 
Assistant Professor
Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Education:
M.D. 1992 ‑ School of Medicine, University of Buenos
Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Courses Taught at ACP:
Pathophysiology
Pharmacology/Medicinal Chemistry III and IV
Research Interests:
Dr. Feleder has a long-standing interest in uncovering the mechanisms
underlying the body's response to immune challenges, i.e., how the central
nervous system controls the physiologic functions that protect the body from
the harmful effects of infectious agents. In 2008, Dr. Feleder was awarded
a three year research grant totaling $231,000 from the National Institutes
of Health (NIH) to study the effects of the spleen in managing fever.
