grateful to receive the John W. Walsh Career Development grant from @AlphaFriend to support my research on genetic and proteomic risk prediction of lung disease in alpha-1 antitrypsin carriers. Many thanks to @mikecho95 George O’Connor @Awilsonlab @BUPulmonary for their support!.
A1F proudly recognized the 2025 Grants Award recipients during the ATS International Conference. These innovative projects represent the next generation of progress in Alpha-1 research. Learn more about the researchers and their work:

I’m excited to share this work hot off the press - genetic risk in case-finding for undiagnosed COPD. Grateful to my mentors @mikecho95 @MattMollpulmccm George O’Connor for the guidance! Many thanks to co-authors, @JAMA_current editors, and @BUPulmonary.
A chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) polygenic risk score enhances the identification of undiagnosed COPD beyond a conventional case-finding approach in the general population.

I'm excited to share our work on genetic risk and "early" COPD (COPD in young people) recently published @ERSpublications. Many thanks to @MattMollpulmccm, @BrianDHobbs and @mikecho95 for mentoring, and to all the coauthors!.
A polygenic risk score is associated with earlier age of COPD diagnosis and is predictive for COPD occurring early in life, with clinical implications of individualised risk stratification and preventive measures
