Brief description Some infections can start inflammation that, while controlling the infection, can also attack the body tissues of genetically susceptible people. This inflammation can initiate long term problems including arthritis, diabetes and cancer. Our research program seeks to understand who is genetically at risk of this sort of problem and why, and thus to develop new means to prevent and treat the chronic diseases that are initiated in this way.
