The next generation of impact in cystic fibrosisLung damage in children with CF occurs much earlier than previously thought, and proving this is related to the decline that occurs later will create new paradigms for prevention and treatment.
Research
Preterm Paediatric Inhaled Corticosteroids Intervention (PICSI)Understanding if ongoing inflammation in the lungs contributes to the poor lung health experienced by some children who were born preterm.
Research
Developing sensitive endpoints for respiratory disease progression in children with neuromuscular diseaseWe hope that through earlier diagnosis and treatment of muscle weakness during sleep, we can prevent future lung failure in children with neuromuscular disorders.
