炎症研究中心（CIR）旨在通过对炎症反应的引发，调节和解决进行跨学科研究，并为该领域的研究培训提供出色的环境，从而促进炎症性疾病的预防，诊断和治疗。表征和操纵炎症的关键控制点。我们专注于：通过阻断免疫学特定的触发因素和调节细胞和组织对伤害性刺激的反应来抑制炎症的发生，寻找新的方法来促进对既定炎症反应的有益调节，从而限制组织损伤，促进炎症的安全解决和恢复。扰动组织的结构和功能的研究<br>我们对肺和肾脏的炎症性疾病特别感兴趣，但是所推导的原理将可以立即应用于肝，肠，骨骼/关节和皮肤的炎症反应。关于炎症和癌症
The Centre for Inflammation Research (CIR) aims to promote the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory diseases through interdisciplinary study of the initiation, regulation and resolution of inflammatory responses and provision of an outstanding environment for research training in the field.<br><br>CIR investigators aim to characterise and manipulate key control points in inflammation. We focus on:<br><br>inhibiting the initiation of inflammation by blocking immunologically specific triggers and by modulating cellular and tissue responses to injurious stimuli<br>finding new approaches to promote beneficial regulation of established inflammatory responses so as to limit tissue injury<br>promoting safe resolution of inflammation and restoration of the structure and function of the perturbed tissue<br><br>We have particular interest in inflammatory diseases of the lung and kidney but the principles derived will have ready application to inflammatory responses in the liver, bowel, bone/joint and skin. There is also increasing development of research in the CIR into the links between inflammation and cancer.
