Genetic basis of haematological conditions (Duration: 2018–2025)

Duration: 2018 – 2025

Abstract: The aim of the project is the molecular characterization of genetic blood disorders in patients with haemoglobinopathies, red blood cell enzyme defects, venous and arterial thrombosis, haemorragic diseases, congenital erythrocytosis and increased percentages of HbF, searching for genetic variants associated or potentially involved in these clinical phenotypes. This project is conducted in collaboration with the Haematology Service of Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Coimbra (CHUC).
