Funded Activity Summary

Diseases of the respiratory track and the immune system represent major public health burdens, from the common cold and lung cancer, to increased risk of infections and auto-immune diseases. We have identified a new gene that is essential for lung development, and required for normal development of antibody-producing immune cells. Here we want to define the mechanism by which this gene functions, in order to better understand how lungs and immune cells develop.
