Funded Activity Summary

Our immune system is delicately balanced between fighting off bugs and destroying infected cells yet protecting healthy cells within the body. The ways in which the immune system responds to attack is regulated by certain genes within the body. This project is focussing on cutting edge research that describes a newly identified way of fine-tuning the immune system. We are studying RNA-binding molecules that can bind to and block genes involved in immune function.
