Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) have been awarded over £2.2m for a study focusing on the causes and characteristics of non-allergic asthma, in the hope of improving treatment or even prevention.
The CAMERA study, led by Professor Neil Pearce, Professor of Biostatistics & Epidemiology at LSHTM and funded by a European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant, will aim to uncover why non-atopic (also known as non-allergic) asthma occurs, and the mechanisms involved, in different settings.
