Inherited diseases See some of the research studies that have taken place in our inherited diseases programme. Haemophilia gene therapy Haemophilia is an X linked bleeding diathesis and is an ideal target for gene therapy. Immunotherapy for chronic leukaemia We use molecular engineering techniques to modify immune cells to identify and kill the malignant chronic lymphoid leukaemia cells. Regenerative medicine Molecular ‘reprogramming’ of adult somatic cells into iPS cells raises possibilities for new cellular therapies. Coagulation and inflammation Our researchers are establishing assays capable of predicting patients at risk of fibrinolytic-induced bleeding
