Description

Post-transcriptional regulation of inflammatory mediators by bronchial epithelial cells from patients with asthma or COPD: Saheli Chowdhury (post-doc; Netherlands Asthma Foundation). Pilot study into kinetics of inflammatory response (collaboration with dr. Sanja Kezic)

Virus-induced exacerbations in asthma; experimental infections with rhinovirus 16: Resolve study (see above). The generation of GMP batch of rhinovirus 16 (EU FP6; UBiopred; Marianne van de Pol). Anti IL-5 treatment to temper virus-induced exacerbations of asthma (Suzanne Bal (post-doc); Koen van der Sluijs: applicant)
