Duke University Received 1.3 Million for CVID Research

I learned yesterday that Duke University received a donation of 1.3 Million dollars for research into CVID. According to the The Chronicle (Duke University's newspaper), the donation funds will be used to "research the genetic mechanisms that give rise to CVID" Duke Chronicle. This research could help improve diagnostic criteria that will help identify CVID patients earlier in life, and potentially prevent long-term damage from infections.

Duke University has been named one of the United States' top hospitals and is located in Durham, North Carolina.
