In the justification for the prize, of SEK 250,000, the Cancer and Allergy Fund highlights that allergic asthma is one of our major diseases.
– It is common to divide asthma into two different main groups, allergic and non-allergic asthma, although there are actually more types, says Madeleine Rådinger in a press release from Cancerfonden.
Her focus is on the allergic asthma and the mechanisms around it.
About one in ten people in Sweden have asthma and for some the disease is very difficult.
