Funded Activity Summary

Prof Goodnow will develop a collaborative consortium of specialist physicians, laboratory researchers and bioinformaticians. This team will apply the new tools of large scale DNA sequencing to reveal the root cause of immune system diseases including: autoimmune diseases, congenital immune deficiency diseases, allergic disorders, and cancer. It aims to accelerate, simplify and unify the diagnosis of these diseases, and guide targeted, earlier and more effective treatment.
