The CMCBI was recently established in new laboratory space in King's College London (Division of Immunology, Infection and Inflammatory Diseases) with the support of the Arthritis Research Campaign (arc). <br /><br />We aim to advance knowledge of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of inflammation, and to open roads to innovative treatment of inflammation and inflammatory diseases. <br /><br />We use both molecular approaches and in vivo model system, to investigates the molecular and cellular pathways and networks that control inflammation. Research teams work on basic model of inflammation, as well as on human diseases. Research teams develop extensive collaboration between them and with other groups in the DIIID and in the Randall division and with collaborators accross the world <br /><br />Tools available in the lab include intravital microscopy, flow cytometry and cell sorting, mouse husbandry, and a Fly lab. A strong core facility for genetics analysis is present on Campus.<br />The Centre is located in New Hunts House, Guy&rsquo;s Hospital Campus, and housed together with the Randall division of Molecular Biophysics with his expertise in Molecular and Cell Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Maths, and the MRC Centre for Developmental Neurobiology. Research in the CMCBI is interdiciplinary. <br />
