Proud to be part of this research group and first author on the article about this groundbreaking research. Exciting times are ahead! @JJohnsonLab

Just under 5.5 million people in the UK receive treatment for asthma and around 1,200 people die of the disease each year. A possible way to tackle one of the underlying causes of asthma has been developed by researchers from Aston University and Imperial College London!👇
