Structural and functional investigation of Killer-Cell Immunoglobulin-like receptors [ 2016 - 2018 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Julian Vivian (Principal investigator) ,  Prof David Price

Brief description Natural Killer (NK) cells are an important component of the immune response to cancer and infection. This project will define the molecular targets that are recognised by NK cells. This knowledge can then be used as a guide in the selection of bone marrow donors in the treatment of leukaemias as well as understanding how we fight infections.
