Research led by #MCRI's Dr Prue Pereira-Fantini has featured on the @geelongaddy's front page, detailing how early signs of bronchopulmonary dysplasia can be seen in the blood of #preterm babies just hours after birth. | #MedicalResearch #LungDisease #BPD @dr_prue

And what about stool as non-invasive screening for Pseudomonas in non-expectorating patients?

Our longitudinal study of the gut-lung-blood axis in early cystic fibrosis is out now, with accompanying editorial, in @ERSpublications

We explore potential biomarkers & targets for disease management & tailored treatments

Great news for eligible 6-11 yo children with cystic fibrosis - Trikafta will be subsidised on the PBS from May 1st. What a life-changing date for many people in Australia, including those of us who have been researching early lung disease in this condition for all these years!

[Katherine Frayman @kfrayman]

@SarathRanganath Fabulous news!

[Katherine Frayman @kfrayman]

So important to reflect on how the system shapes patient and clinician experience...and how we can work to optimise it.

I won't share a photo because they simply don't deserve the attention.

But yesterday, anti-trans activists gathered to spread hate.

And on the steps of our Parliament, some of them performed a Nazi salute.
