The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Our hypothesis is that half of the first degree relatives of this individual will carry this SFTPC mutation, and that a portion of these may have evidence of interstitial lung disease in an early stage before symptoms have developed.
