Funded Activity Summary

In a human body, about a million cells are born every second, and a million die by activating a physiological cell death mechanism. If cell death fails to occur, cells accumulate and can develop into cancers. Determining the mechanism and regulation of physiological cell death will provide novel approaches to treat cancers and auto-immune diseases, both of which are characterised by failure of certain cells to die.
