Characterisation of the genetic networks underlying macrophage differentiation and the resolution of inflammation [ 2008 - 2012 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Christine Wells (Principal investigator)

Brief description Chronic inflammation is a central player in many common diseases, impacting on the health and well being of millions of Australians. By using innovative genomic approaches to build a map of all of the gene products involved in the inflammatory process, this project aims to identify which are the critical molecules that normally switch off inflammation. Our ultimate aim is to develop new approaches to treating inflammatory disease.
