Diabetes and Vascular Biology

Research teams within the Diabetes and Vascular Biology theme apply interdisciplinary methods to cover a broad spectrum of areas including atherothrombosis, inflammation, diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy, and a range of related diseases.  The research is grounded in complementary strengths within SBBS in molecular and cellular biology, cell signaling, immune and platelet biology, in vivo imaging and translational research.
