Knight, H., Jia, R., Ayling, K., Bradbury, K., Baker, K., Chalder, T., …Vedhara, K. (2021). Understanding and addressing vaccine hesitancy in the context of COVID-19: development of a digital intervention. Public Health, 201, 98-107. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.puhe.2021.10.006

Objectives: Severe Acute Respiratory Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was identified in late 2019, spreading to over 200 countries and resulting in almost two million deaths worldwide. The emergence of safe and effective vaccines provides a route out of th...

Background Several regions of the genome have shown to be associated with COPD in genome-wide association studies of common variants. Objective To determine rare and potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated...

Copy Number Variation of the Beta-Defensin Genes in Europeans: No Supporting Evidence for Association with Lung Function, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or Asthma (2014)
Journal Article
Wain, L. V., Odenthal-Hesse, L., Abujaber, R., Sayers, I., Beardsmore, C., Gaillard, E. A., …Hollox, E. J. (2014). Copy Number Variation of the Beta-Defensin Genes in Europeans: No Supporting Evidence for Association with Lung Function, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or Asthma. PLoS ONE, 9(1), Article e84192. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0084192

Lung function measures are heritable, predict mortality and are relevant in diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD and asthma are diseases of the airways with major public health impacts and each have a heritable component. G...
