Immunohaematology
Research Group Heads
The Immunohaematology research group are interested in signalling pathways that control homeostasis and function of blood and immune cells in health and disease.

Specific research interests are
- Defining the roles of the NFκB signalling pathway in lymphocyte development and function;
- Modulation of iron in disorders of ineffective erythropoiesis;
- Targeting the NFκB pathway in haematological neoplasms.
