What the grant funds
The purpose of the SUNBEAM - Analysis and Bioinformatics Center (SUNBEAM-ABC) is to establish a mechanistic omics center to support the birth cohort study Systems Biology of Early Atopy (SUNBEAM). The center will assay biologic samples collected within the SUNBEAM cohort using omics and systems biology approaches to identify determinants of atopic disease, focusing on food allergy and atopic dermatitis (AD) in newborns, infants, and very young children. SUNBEAM-ABC will support the SUNBEAM birth cohort study by providing analytic infrastructure for a comprehensive understanding of molecular and cellular pathways that contribute to atopic disease development and to identify early predictive biomarkers.
