Strep A causes over 775 million infections each year world-wide, including over 615 million cases of tonsil infection (Strep throat).
This project investigates how cells of the immune system respond to substances to cause allergies to help develop new treatments.
Structural changes identified on CT scans in primary ciliary dyskinesia are not identical to those previously described in cystic fibrosis patients
An innovative response-adaptive approach to driving improvements in health outcomes, applied to cystic fibrosis.
That's why Melissa has signed up her four year old healthy son Odin for a study at Perth's The Kids Research Institute Australia that will help kids with cystic fibrosis.

Nanoparticles are being developed for diverse biomedical applications, but there is concern about potential to promote inflammation, particularly in the lungs.
Preterm infants have immature control of breathing and impaired pulmonary gas exchange. We hypothesized that infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) have a blunted ventilatory response and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) instability during a hypoxic challenge.
Functional studies of how early-life interventions shape the airway microbiome remain scarce. Here, we performed metagenomic sequencing of 704 longitudinal nasal swabs from infants with and without cystic fibrosis (CF) to construct and characterize a non-redundant gene atlas of the infant nasal microbiome. We aimed to determine how the nasal microbiome is perturbed by early therapies, as CF is commonly treated with inhaled hypertonic saline to improve mucociliary clearance.
