The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation today mourns the passing of legendary sports journalist Frank Deford, whose young daughter Alex lost her fight to CF in 1980, and who served as chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's Board of Trustees from 1982-1999.
The cystic fibrosis care model is evolving to support people living longer with CF and their increasingly diverse health needs. Catalyzed by the approval of Trikafta® and the COVID-19 pandemic, this adaptive and personalized care model encompasses novel ways to connect clinicians and patients.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation hosted a Congressional briefing on February 11 to discuss the benefits of the Foundation's model of specialized, coordinated care and its innovative strategies for drug development, and how they can serve as an example for other rare, chronic diseases.
