Asthma research uncovered

Asthma research uncovered

Dr Hans Michael Haitchi

Support Hans Michael

Three amazing asthma researchers have got together to raise £10,000 to help fund more life-changing work for people with asthma. You can now find out about the research they’re doing.

Meet Dr Hans Michael Haitchi

Hans Michael and his team are studying the ‘asthma gene,’ ADAM33, which they believe holds the key to stopping and reversing allergic asthma

Hans Michael says “Your support is vital for our research to develop new drugs that target ADAM33.  While we have good asthma therapies that control inflammation and relieve symptoms, we have no therapies that prevent or reverse asthma. Our aim is to develop ADAM33 blocking agents for new asthma treatments in the future.

Help support more life-changing research into new treatments

Through the discovery of the ‘asthma gene’, ADAM33, Dr Hans Michael Haitchi is working to stop the development of allergic asthma in children. Imagine what this could mean for future generations?
