Main lines of research<br />

-The identification of additional genetic susceptibility<br />

markers for type 1 diabetes and related autoimmune<br />

disorders in the extended MHC (6p21) and other regions<br />

using high throughput genotyping.<br />

-The study of immune mediators of disease<br />

development, characterization of novel autoantigens/<br />

antibodies and cell populations in patients: Th1, Th2<br />

and Th17 responses.<br />

-The identification of new genes responsible for monogenic<br />

diabetes by genome wide analysis (both CGI and CGH<br />

approaches).<br />

-The molecular and clinical characterization of monogenic<br />
