The department of Respiratory Medicine at UCL comprises of the Centre for Inflammation and Tissue Repair, Lungs for Living Research Centre, and Centre for Respiratory Biology
Centre for Inflammation and Tissue Repair (CITR) conducts world leading fundamental and translational research in the field of inflammation and tissue repair within the setting of respiratory disease and tissue fibrosis.
We conduct world-leading airway stem cell biology and lung cancer research. Our aim is to delineate the biological processes supporting airway homeostasis and to identify the earliest cellular and molecular events causing lung cancer.
