Professor Bradding, who is a Professor of Respiratory Medicine at the University of Leicester and Consultant Respiratory Physician at Leicester's Hospitals, said: «The most exciting thing about finding these biological variations underpinning the differences between
mild asthma and moderate and severe
asthma is that the statistical methods if further
developed could lead to the development of new, targeted treatments for subtypes of
asthma, thus allowing the right
asthma treatments to be matched to different patients.
