Wellcome Trust PhD Programme for Clinicians at the University of Dundee: "Innate immune signalling in response to fungal infection." (360G-Wellcome-087079_Z_08_A)
The recognition of pathogens by the innate immune system is critical for immunity. While much attention has been focused on the innate response to bacteria and viruses, less is known about the response to fungal pathogens. This project will look at the signalling induced by fungal infection in the innate immune systems, and determine the pathways involved in regulating the production of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators. An emphasis will be placed on the investigation of the role of MSKs in regulating anti-inflammatory pathways, and the possibility that these kinases may be critical in limiting inflammation following fungal infection.
