A deal has been done. Finally, people with #cysticfibrosis living in England will have access to #Orkambi and #Symkevi. We thank the community for their support and campaigning to get access to #LifeSavingDrugsNow! More to follow

Did you miss Sammie's story of how home monitoring has improved her #cysticfibrosis care? Watch it again and hear from Sammie in the panel shortly #UKCFC

A paradigm shift in overall approach to Cystic Fibrosis, from biological & therapeutic POV. ENAC sodium influx - NLRP3 inflammasome priming in CF. Also CF shares many features with SAIDs, IL-1/IL-18/IL-1Ra signature, innate immune dysreg - periodic attacks

I am really happy to share my first research article as first author, thanks to all the team, keep tuned because our team got another paper coming soon...

Last week those at #ECFS2019 were awed by the Cystic Fibrosis Virtual Choir and Thomas Oakley, a dancer with CF. Now, thanks to Marcus Wackwitz and the team from @KITGroupBerlin, we can share this with you all.

@SamuelLaraR giving his talk on the unfolded protein response, metabolism and inflammation in cystic fibrosis. Lots of interesting new data! #ecfs2019 #ECFS2019

I just got several letters from middle school kids after a Skype chat with them. I explained them what is Cystic Fibrosis and what are the consequences of CF.
It feels good that some of them learned something.
This was the best:

Great training opportunity, really happy to be part of it. CFIT workshop @SickKidsNews @STEMCELLTech.
Before you can do a good differentiation you need to have high quality stem cells. I’m excited to be back in the lab for this week’s CFIT workshop with @SickKidsNews @STEMCELLTech and @OIRMnews.

Following from yesterday’s sample, the next step is to further purify the sample and collect the white blood cells we’re interested in. To do that we use what’s called a magnetic column. @cftrust @CFTrustYouth @BelindaCupid #cysticfibrosis #cysticfibrosisresearch

Ever wondered how blood samples are processed for Cystic fibrosis research at Leeds? We’re very interested in how the CFTR mutation effects white blood cells and how a better understanding of this will lead to new insights into CF. 👨🔬👩🔬🔬@cftrust #cysticfibrosisresearch

I was happy to present an update in the metabolic profile of immune cells in cystic fibrosis.
Thanks for the opportunity #ECFS

The rheumatologist currently working in Manchester CF centre is off to #EULAR2018 today and would love to catch up with anyone with an interest in rheum issues in #CF so if that's you then let us know! 👌
