Leveraging the interface between epidemiology and molecular biology to enhance disease prevention

随着时间的推移，一些疾病变得越来越普遍，这种增长速度太快，不仅仅是遗传因素造成的。我的研究项目旨在确定这些疾病的环境驱动因素，以便我们能够改善目前的努力，在这些疾病开始之前就阻止它们。该研究计划的重点是影响儿童大脑发育的因素，食物过敏如何开始以及可以预防多发性硬化症发作或缓慢进展的因素。

Some diseases are becoming more common over time.The increase over time is too rapid to be due to genetics alone. My research program aims to identify the environmental drivers of these diseases so that we can improve the current efforts to stop these diseases before they even begin. The research program has a focus on factors impacting on how a child's brain develops, how food allergy begins and the factors that can prevent multiple sclerosis onset or slow progression.
