Funded Activity Summary

Eosinophils are rare blood cells that play a key role in the pathology of asthma and other inflammatory diseases. Asthma afflicts hundreds of millions of people worldwide, and excess eosinophils are common in many patients. We aim to define the cells involved in eosinophil development, and we will use cutting-edge technologies to identify new eosinophil regulators that may serve as drug targets or as novel entry points for development of therapeutics for asthma or other inflammatory diseases.
