Food Insecurity, Intrahousehold Dynamics, and Lifecourse Outcomes in India
Food Insecurity (FI) involves insufficient access to enough safe and nutritious food for a healthy life. The importance of FI will grow in coming decades, driven by factors such as...
Ocular Clinical Safety of the MET penetration enhancer platform and OC134 for severe allergic conjunctivitis
Ocular allergies are widespread, affecting up to a fifth (20 %) of the world's population. Most patients will be helped by current medication available in the pharmacy. However, ab...
Uncovering the contribution of copy number variants to disorders of insulin secretion
This project aims to identify new genetic causes of disorders of monogenic insulin secretion: disorders of decreased (diabetes) or excessive (hyperinsulinism) insulin secretion. A...
Isatuximab in combination for untreated multiple myeloma when a stem cell transplant is unsuitable [ID3981]
Multiple myeloma is a form of cancer that arises from plasma cells (a type of white blood cell) in the bone marrow. Myeloma cells suppress the development of normal blood cells tha...
