Main inclusion criteria
Studies of normal biology including:
- genes and gene products
- molecular, cellular and physiological structures and function
- biological pathways and processes including normal immune function
- developmental studies and normal ageing
- bioinformatics and structural studies
- development and characterisation of model systems
Advice on research activities
To be used for research involving normal biological function including the following:
- basic immune and pain responses and wound healing studies that are not linked to a specific disease/condition stimulus
- normal ageing or pregnancy not linked to a condition
- normal stem cell research into differentiation and basic developmental biology of stem cells not linked to therapeutic development
- protein structural studies
- bioinformatics
- normal cell cycle and DNA replication and repair
Excludes studies characterising proteins or pathways linked to a condition or disease.
