The genetic and cellular control of lymphangiogenesis in health and disease [ 2015 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Benjamin Hogan (Principal investigator)

Brief description Lymphatic vessels and veins play major roles in cardiovascular disorders. In many vascular pathologies we need an ability to promote or restrict vessel formation. This research investigates the genes that control the development of new veins and lymphatic vessels. Outcomes will include a greater understanding of how our vasculature is formed, providing new knowledge that should contribute to future lymphatic and vascular therapeutic approaches.
