Today is #CFWeek and the Whelan lab are in yellow for #WearYellowDay to raise awareness and funds for the life-limiting genetic condition Cystic Fibrosis (CF). CF is without a cure and dominates thousands of lives everyday.
Explore @cysticfibrosis.org.uk's great resources to learn more 💛🧬
Highly effective modulator therapies have transformed life for many people with CF. But they don't work for everyone.
That’s why finding new treatments that work for everyone with cystic fibrosis is vital and remains one of our top research priorities.

In the latest episode of our CForYourself podcast, we're talking all about CF diabetes. Our host Lucy chats to Joseph about his experience of managing the condition day to day, and to Professor Vicky Salem about her research into a potential new way to treat CF diabetes.

It’s a big week for CF researchers, doctors and CF teams around Europe this week, as the #ECFS conference is taking place!
It’s a time to discuss the latest advances in CF research, meet colleagues to set up new studies together and ensure that we’re supporting everyone with CF across Europe.
