Mechanisms of Disease and Translational Research
The network of groups that constitutes this theme uses multidisciplinary approaches to understand the origins of and develop new treatments for:
- heart and blood vessel diseases
- cancers
- arthritis
- chronic respiratory diseases
- neurodegeneration
- eye diseases
We have the expertise to translate basic scientific research outcomes from cells studies into proof-of-principle studies in animals and ultimately into new treatments, with the potential to significantly reduce burden of disease in the community.
