Proteins in our blood could in future help provide a comprehensive ‘liquid health check’, assessing our health and predicting the likelihood that we will we will develop a range of diseases, according to research published today in Nature Medicine.
The University of Cambridge has joined European partners in a major study of proteins which will shed light on the role played by biological systems in health and disease.
A new technique developed at the University of Cambridge allows researchers to identify clusters of proteins on immune cells which are key to fighting off the body’s invaders.
The Cambridge Centre for Proteomics is internationally recognised for pioneering technology that helps us to understand what proteins do inside cells.
