The aim of our research is to uncover new links between long term conditions that could lead to improved interventions including drug treatments or other more focused treatments. These new links could include a better understanding of which cells in the body are most critical to the presence of two conditions in the same patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To achieve our aims, we have formed a partnership called the GEMINI collaborative. This team includes two people with multimorbidity, health care professionals including those in primary care and experts in statistics and genetics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our research team is made up of the following people:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
