Funded Activity Summary

What are the major factors underpinning complex genetic diseases like diabetes, bipolar disorder or cancer? To answer this question new tools are needed, including software for mining the human genome with interactions between the genome and environment being incorporated. This is our focus. It will form the basis of a superior understanding of the overall process leading to disease and hence better predictions with important ramifications for new treatments and health care planning.
