Ratko Djukanovic is Professor of Respiratory Medicine and Honorary Consultant Physician, Director of the Division of Infection Inflammation and Repair and Director of the Southampton Respiratory Biomedical Research Unit.(NIHR BRU). His own translational research is conducted within the Inflammatory Cell Biology Group of which he is the head. The basic research studies in Professor Djukanovic's group have led to a better understanding of mechanisms of T cell recruitment (requirement of co-stimulatory molecules and NFkappaB), chemotaxis and survival of eosinophils and neutrophils and the close communication between epithelial cells and inflammatory cells.
