The brain is our computing machine that integrates stimuli from the environment and orchestrates responses to these stimuli. Here, I propose that the defining role of the immune system is to sense microorganisms and to inform the brain about them.
大脑是我们的计算机,它整合来自环境的刺激,并协调对这些刺激的反应。在这里,我提出免疫系统的定义作用是感知微生物,并将其信息传达给大脑。
