Novel Therapies targeting Cardiovascular Disease. Synthetic Lipoxin-A4 mimetics: novel therapeutic approaches to target residual inflammatory risk in Atherosclerosis-Associated Diabetes Complications.
Atherosclerosis is a life-long condition essentially due to an inflammatory reaction that drives accumulation of fats and cell debris into the vessel wall, blocking the blood flow. Read more
Are macrophages the heroes or villains of infection control?
The field of host pathogen interactions has never been more important. From the recent Covid19 pandemic to the causes of cancer and neurodegenerative disease host pathogen interactions underpin the pathology of many important diseases. Read more
Molecular modelling and analysis of plasma cell cancers
Plasma cell neoplasms, including multiple myeloma, are cancers of the immune system that remain largely incurable despite major advances in therapy. Read more
