Kawasaki Disease Research Links
We are building what we wish to be the most comprehensive on line research resource relevant to our UK community, for clinicians. That’s an ambition we’ll keep working towards – adding to the information here as often as possible.
If there are key papers that you think it is important that we have links to, please do contact us and we will add them. If you are working on research into Kawasaki Disease and want to promote that here – or discuss it with us, please get in touch. If you’d like us to post information from your organisation on our website, links to relevant papers or articles, please contact us.
