Funded Activity Summary

Understanding the genes that underpin the immune system is vital for studying the causes and effects of diseases. In particular, autoimmune diseases are strongly associated with an individual having certain genetic types. We plan to develop methods to type immune-related genes very cheaply so they can be studied in very large samples. We will apply the methods we develop to genetic studies of psoriasis and multiple sclerosis, and make data and methods available to other scientists.
