Much has been achieved in CF research and treatment over the past decade but the work goes on to find therapies that will improve the lives of everyone living with CF. Great team effort here (led by @janedaviescf) highlighting the priorities for the next decade. Onwards team CF!!
Perspective article “Future Therapies for Cystic Fibrosis” published today in @NatureComms (Open access)! Here we look to the future of cystic fibrosis therapies and consider priorities for future research and development.

Want to see what amazing science driven by a pressing clinical need for treatments looks like? Well check this out!! Brilliant work from @Anandamirch and team
I am humbled and delighted to share our most recent paper in @NatImmunol showing how hypoxemia (and consequent tissue hypoxia) alters innate immune responses in the lung in acute lung injury (ALI)/ ARDS https://t.co/jXHXOghCYT. Summary of 6 years' worth of work @EdUni_MeetCIR 👇

Big shout out to the @cftrust. Their support of clinical trials infrastructure in the UK has enabled many centres like ours to give people with CF the chance to access trials of potentially life changing medications. Happy #InternationalClinicalTrialsDay to all!!
Today is #InternationalClinicalTrialsDay! We'll be sharing lots throughout the day to celebrate! ➡️ https://t.co/OHDWuHYSAY

Brilliant work @kennethbaillie and team. From genomics to a successful targeted treatment in RECOVERY at lightening speed. Science at its best.
The news just now from RECOVERY is another massive improvement in care of patients with Covid-19. It also has implications for how we treat, and study, other life-threatening disease. 1/n

Please have a look at the sepsis research advent calendar and see all the great work people have done for sepsis research this year raising funds and awareness and facilitating world class research.
We are lucky enough at Sepsis Research FEAT to count Santa amongst our board of esteemed trustees. This year he visited the home of trustee Dr Robert Gray. Thanks Santa! View our full advent calendar here https://t.co/gaKvv5eyC4

Check out our new paper where we show why a commonly used CF mouse the lacks the inflammatory macrophage phenotype seen in people with CF. An important observation for anyone working in CF inflammation. Great work from @JonathanGillan_
