Part of Imperial College London’s Faculty of Medicine, the Department of Immunology and Inflammation is led by Professor Marina Botto. The Department comprises the Centre for Inflammatory Disease and the Centre for Haematology, which in turn hosts the recently established Hugh and Josseline Centre for Myeloma Research.
Based entirely at the Hammersmith Hospital campus, the Department provides an outstanding research environment where scientists from clinical and non-clinical backgrounds work together to advance understanding of mechanisms and causes of malignant and non-malignant blood diseases and chronic inflammatory conditions and to develop new translational approaches. It has a multidisciplinary approach and hosts excellent experimental programmes in basic and applied life sciences as well as clinical research.
