From genes to functional defects in hereditary and malignant diseases Ghent University
An increasing proportion of human diseases is being recognized as resulting from the effect of inherited as well as somatically acquired gene mutations and/or epimutations. Identifying the corresponding genes and mutations, as well the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these disorders would be an important step in the path towards improved prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases.
The purpose of this network is to make ...
