Contributors to this book explore existing strategies and examine possible new strategies for using the genome sequences of human, mouse, other vertebrates and human pathogens to solve outstanding problems in the treatment of immunological diseases and chronic infections. The assembled genome sequences now provide important opportunities for solving these problems, but the bottleneck is to identify key sequences and circuits controlling the relevant immune reactions. This requires innovative, interdisciplinary and collaborative strategies of a scale and complexity we are only now beginning to comprehend.
