Welcome From Prof Wood
The laboratory works at the interface of neuromuscular science and biotechnology. A major focus is the study of neuromuscular diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, myotonic dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy and the development of gene-based therapies, in particular RNA-based therapies, for…
Oxford Harrington Rare Disease Centre
The University of Oxford and University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio, have announced a multi-year affiliation to establish a global centre for rare diseases.
Our Research
We work at the interface of biotechnology and biomedicine. Our major focus is on RNA biology and RNA therapeutics as applied primarily to rare neuromuscular diseases.
EV biology and therapeutics
Extracellular vesicles are heterogeneous intercellular communicators and a bioengineering platform for the delivery of biotherapeutics.
Neuromuscular Diseases
The Wood lab is a leading research group focused on rare neuromuscular disease biology and the development of novel therapies for neuromuscular disorders including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and more recently myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1).
