Discovering off-target side-effects and drug repurposing candidates using expression perturbation data

The MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit at the University of Bristol is the leading group for the development and application of causal analysis and evidence triangulation in health research to improve lives. Read more

Integrative genomics prioritisation of drug targets

The MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit at the University of Bristol is the leading group for the development and application of causal analysis and evidence triangulation in health research to improve lives. Read more

Harnessing the genetics of DNA methylation to understand context-specific gene regulation in disease

Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered many genetic associations for traits and diseases. However, most GWAS signals reside in non-coding regions (outside genes), and it is likely that GWAS variants confer their effects through modulating regulatory mechanism. Read more

Endothelial glycocalyx damage as a therapeutic target in sepsis-associated Acute Kidney Injury

Sepsis is the leading cause of acute kidney injury (sAKI), associated with high morbidity and mortality.1,2 Unfortunately, there is no treatment for sAKI, current therapies are nonspecific and supportive of the vital organ systems in the hope the kidney will recover. Read more

Creating patient-specific retinal organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells for in vitro simulation of uveitis

Uveitis, although uncommon, is a notable cause of visual impairment and blindness. Uveitis encompasses a range of conditions driven by both innate autoinflammatory and adaptive autoimmune CD4 T-cell responses. Read more

What outcomes are important to patients with osteoarthritis? Development of a core outcome set

Osteoarthritis is the most common musculoskeletal condition worldwide and is the leading cause of disability in the UK. In our recent study to identify research priorities in osteoarthritis, the highest priority question to patients was “What outcomes are important to patients?”[1]. Read more

Epilepsy and the ageing brain

Our ability to remember ‘where I put my car keys today’ instead of ‘where I put them yesterday’ depends on a computational process called pattern separation. Read more

Metabolomic characterisation of adiposity across the life course

There is evidence that adiposity, measured by body mass index (BMI), causally influences a range of health outcomes, but little understanding of the mechanisms driving BMI effects. Read more

Updating the background characteristics and risk factors associated with Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) to inform risk-reduction messages and help target vulnerable families

Our team has been instrumental in reducing the number of cot deaths (SIDS or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) in England & Wales by 90% over the last three decades.[1] The remaining 2-300 unexpected infant deaths per year show a marked inequality, largely coming from socio-economically deprived communities.
