This project focuses on understanding and treating ciliopathies, which are genetic disorders caused by cilia dysfunction. It aims to identify new therapeutic targets and develop innovative treatments through genetic research and high-throughput screening.
Background:
Cilia are hair-like, microtubule-based organelles protruding from most quiescent mammalian cells.
They play essential roles in cell signalling (primary cilia) as well as movement of fluid (motile cilia).
Although individually rare, cilia dysfunction affects up to 1 in 500 people in Europe, significantly reducing quality of life and lifespan due to dysfunction of multiple organs, including the kidneys, liver, heart, brain, retina, airways and the skeleton.
To date, treatment is purely…
