Funded Activity Summary

I aim to reduce illness and death caused by inherited diseases, particularly in unborn children, newborns and infants. I will do this by finding causes of inherited diseases we don’t yet know, investigating treatments for inherited diseases and developing better methods of diagnosing inherited diseases. I will also investigate methods of finding carriers of recessive diseases before they have affected children, so that they can avoid having children affected with severe diseases.
