PULSE-CF Research Innovation Hub

Looking for a PhD? The following posts are now available at the University of Liverpool.

Great to host @lifearc.bsky.social and @cysticfibrosis.org.uk yesterday and to show them what we have been doing with colleagues in CF centres across the UK.
We now have 15 centres open for CF-Tracker study www.pulse-cf.com/tracker-study

This week we’ve been visiting researchers within our Translational Innovation Hub Network for CF Lung Health and Infection funded by the Trust and LifeArc.

Find out more about our Trailfinder-CF and Pulse-CF Innovation hubs on our website.

People living with one condition 'uniquely vulnerable' to super flu A H3N2 virus - dubbed 'super flu' - is sweeping hospitals in England - and people with one health condition may be more at risk

CF-Tracker is in the Manchester Evening News. Important for pwCF to take care as we enter the winter flu surge!

This week we welcomed Hull Adult CF Centre to the CF-Tracker study! We have another 11 sites still in process, and plan to have many of these open before the end of the year!
You can follow progress on the @cysticfibrosis.org.uk Trials Tracker:

Over the next 5 years, our Translational Innovation Hub Network will address challenges around finding new lung infection treatment options, detecting and treating flare-ups, and developing new ways to diagnose infections.

We will be presenting about the PULSE-CF Hub and updating on how far we've come in the last year! Looking forward to it.

Our first CF-Tracker study participant started the study today! First of many for this exciting @cftrustuk.bsky.social @lifearc.bsky.social funded Research Innovation Hub. Huge thanks to the team and to @nihr.bsky.social Manchester CRF!

CF-Tracker study now open on @cftrustuk.bsky.social Trials Tracker too!

CF Tracker Study This is "CF Tracker Study" by Nice Cat Media on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

The CF-Tracker study is NOW OPEN at our first site, Wythenshawe Hospital in Manchester!
You can find out more about the study below or on our website (www.pulse-cf.com)

We think pollution might be an important reason why some people with CF become unwell, thats why we're looking into this as a cause of exacerbations in our CF-Tracker study.
In the meantime, great to see this Asthma+Lung event in Manchester, come and support!
