Brief description Asthma is a chronic airway disease caused by inflammation. Although asthmatics can be sub-typed based on the type of inflammatory cells present in the lungs, medication specific for the treatment of these sub-types is not yet available. In this grant we will investigate the immune processes that orchestrate the development of the distinct inflammatory sub-types of asthma. This information will help us develop new therapies that will be tailored to target the appropriate type of inflammation.
