Liver Diseases Research Group	Dr. Gerald Minuk	The principal goal of the liver diseases research group is to enhance the understanding and thereby develop more effective therapy for inflammatory disorders of the hepatobiliary system. Much of the research being performed employs recombinant DNA physiology, animal models and patients with viral hepatitis. The results are relevant to other common liver disorders including alcoholic hepatitis, fatty liver, drug-induced hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Ongoing collaboration with other groups further contribute to the success of this program. For example, colleagues in pathology have documented the appearance and nature of the inflammatory cells as well as the magnitude of the reparative processes by advanced immunocytochemical and electron microscope techniques, while colleagues in radiology are assessing the severity of diseases and rapidity of its resolution by standard radiologic studies and MRI.	26 May 2021 15:55:49
Manitoba Centre for Proteomics and Systems Biology	Dr. John Wilkins	The objective of the Manitoba Centre for Proteomics and Systems Biology (MCPSB) is to provide core expertise and services in several areas of relevance to the biological and medical research community in Manitoba and Canada. These areas include but are not limited to bioinformatics, proteomics, protein separation, mass spectrometry, monoclonal antibody production and high content image analysis. The MCPSB is dedicated to research involving the analysis and functional characterization of proteins in the context of the organism.
