Background
Few genetic studies that focus on moderate-to-severe asthma exist. We aimed to identity novel genetic variants associated with moderate-to-severe asthma, see whether previously identified genetic variants for all types of asthma contribut...

Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association (2018)
Journal Article
Hall, R., Hall, I. P., & Sayers, I. (2018). Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association. Respirology, 24(3), 204-214. https://doi.org/10.1111/resp.13436

Chronic respiratory diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) combined affect over 500 million people worldwide. While environmental factors are important in disease progression, as... Read More about Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association.
