The fight to maintain quality of life is just as important as life itself. Ask those with Cancer. Diabetes. Or HIV. Our focus on finding new ways to predict and prevent disease will accelerate medical advances that maintain health and improve quality of life.
SDBRI scientists study cancer, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, HIV vaccine development, cachexia, and obesity. This is a diverse set of conditions with appreciable differences, but there is a great deal of overlap among them. They are all associated with dysregulation in the immune system, metabolism, and inflammatory profile. Researchers explore their own specialties and work together to address questions related to more than one disease.
