Helpful research

I came across this yesterday:

"MRC-funded researchers led by the Universities of Leicester and Nottingham have discovered genetic differences that put some people at higher risk than others of developing chronic lung disease.

The new study, published in Nature Genetics, shows that genetic differences help explain why some people who have never smoked develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and why some smokers are at higher risk of getting the disease than other smokers..."

Thanks for this. I missed it first time round. Can't help thinking that research time could be better used in finding optimum treatments for each patient. All to often I hear, we are all different. No mention either of pollution and its effects, this is frequently ignored, this time in favour of the genetic argument
