Knowledge of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein structure will contribute toward the understanding of CFTR function and CF biology, the mechanisms of action for CF drugs, and provide additional insight toward new drug discovery through structure-based drug design.
To help ensure your child's social, emotional, medical, and educational needs are being met at school, you may consider requesting an evaluation for an individualized education program or a 504 plan through your child's school.
When there is more than one person with CF in your school, it is essential that they be kept a minimum of 6 feet (2 meters) apart from each other. Germs can spread as far as 6 feet through droplets released in the air when people cough or sneeze.
This award will enable promising early-career physicians to enhance their
As children with cystic fibrosis transition toward greater independence at school and at home, they will also take greater responsibility in managing their disease.
Delayed puberty is common among young men with CF, but working with your CF care team to ensure you get good nutrition can help encourage healthy development and growth.
The objective of this award is to support excellent cystic fibrosis-related research projects that have been approved by the National Institutes of Health (or governmental funding agencies in other countries) but cannot be supported by available funds.
This program is intended to introduce students to cystic fibrosis research and encourage them to remain engaged in the field.
The goal of this request for applications is to identify ambitious basic research projects aiming to utilize cutting-edge techniques and strategies that have the potential to discover new
