Research

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by small airway disease; but central airways may also be affected. We hypothesized that airway resistance estimated from computational fluid dynamic (CFD) methodology in infants with CF was higher than controls and that early airway inflammation in infants with CF is associated with airway resistance.

Research

The study of the respiratory microbiota has revealed that the lungs of healthy and diseased individuals harbour distinct microbial communities. Imbalances in these communities can contribute to the pathogenesis of lung disease. How these imbalances occur and establish is largely unknown. This review is focused on the genetically inherited condition of Cystic Fibrosis.

The AREST CF project focuses on the assessment, treatment and prevention of CF lung disease in children under the age of seven.

News & Events

The Kids researchers have been awarded over $3.4 million for a new trial to pioneer improved ways for managing cystic fibrosis (‘CF’).

We tested the hypothesis that treatment of CF epithelial cells with ivacaftor (Iva) or ivacaftor/lumacaftor (Iva/Lum) would improve control of rhinovirus infection.

Promoting healthier lives for children with Cystic Fibrosis

A clinical trial is a scientific study, or an organised test of medicines and new treatment options, involving patient and non-patient human volunteers.
