Title of project: 
Examination of the relationship between atopic latent profiles and asthma-eczema-hay-fever broad phenotype
Proposal summary: 

A recent study has identified 136 genetic markers associated with all three allergic diseases (asthma, hay-fever, eczema). Another study has shown that patients fall into different groups of allergic disease, for example some may have only asthma and eczema, and others may have only eczema and hay-fever etc. This project is aiming to find out if any of these genetic markers are associated with any particular groups of disease.
