Research Fellowship

铁元素过少或过多都是影响人类的一些最常见疾病的原因。这些疾病包括铁超载、贫血和慢性病贫血。这个项目研究了基因和它们在调节体内铁水平中所起的作用，以及当它们发生突变时对个体的影响。最终，我打算开发有助于这些疾病的早期诊断和有效治疗的治疗学和诊断学。

Too little or too much of the essential element iron is the cause of some of the most common disorders affecting humans. These include iron overload, anaemia, and anaemia of chronic disease. This project examines the genes and the roles they play in regulating iron levels in the body, and the consequences to the individuals when they are mutated. Ultimately I intend to develop therapeutics and diagnostics which will help early diagnosis and effective treatment of these disorders.
