Mechanism Of Diseases

INTRODUCTION

All diseases result from the disturbance of cellular and molecular processes. The Mechanisms of Diseases cluster brings together research groups to elucidate the molecular basis of diseases and translating these discoveries between the bench and bedside to improve human health. Such knowledge forms the basis for the development of new therapies for cancers, metabolic, infectious, and immunological diseases. Our integrative approach enables investigation of mechanisms of human disease, providing in-depth insight into the molecular processes underlying disease and help to address unmet therapeutic and diagnostic needs of the future.
