Presentation / Conference
Carroll, W., Saunders, A., Ismail, K., Farrell, W., Emes, R., & Fryer, A. (2014, September). Daylight robbery: Hospitals admissions for childhood asthma in English regions are inversely associated with hours of sunshine. Presented at 22nd Annual Congress, Munich, Germany

Background: Vitamin D is implicated in the expression of childhood asthma but it is difficult to pick apart cause and effect from observational data. If lack of vitamin D is secondary to a sedentary lifestyle then weather patterns should not effect a...

Glossop, J. R., Nixon, N. B., Emes, R. D., Haworth, K. E., Packham, J. C., Dawes, P. T., …Farrell, W. E. (2014, April). 263. Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Profiling Identifies Distinct Changes in T- and B-Cell Populations from Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Paper presented at Rheumatology 2014, Liverpool, UK

Background: DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms that impacts on gene expression without underlying changes to the DNA sequence. Recent studies describe changes to the DNA methylome in RA. To date however, no systematic genome-wide...
