Molecular mechanisms and pathways of chronic inflammatory and degenerative diseases

Research summary

Is to perform basic research into the causes of arthritis and other inflammatory diseases, and help to develop preventative and therapeutic interventions. We use patient blood and waste tissue from surgical interventions to set up explant cultures to characterise the cells involved in the disease process, identify novel gene signatures and to test new therapies.
