Welcome to the
Developmental Genetics and Pathology Group
Developmental genetics brings to mind images from genetics textbooks with pictures of fruitflies while pathology might suggest scenes of Crime Scene Investigation (CSI).
However, the Development Genetics and Pathology Group (DGPG) does not work on either mutant flies or samples from a crime scene. We are interested in inherited or inborn errors of human development and disease where, in this case, 'development' refers generally to the formation and growth of tissues pre- and post-natally.
Our current interests are strongly focused on pathways of development in cancer, including melanoma, kidney cancer and kidney disease including polycystic kidney disease. |
