The Impact of Modulator therapy from Early life on lung health trajectories in Cystic Fibrosis (TIME-CF)Cystic fibrosis is an inherited condition that results in chronic lung disease. In recent years, a new type of medication called CFTR modulators has become available.

Western Australia Paediatric Bronchiectasis CohortBronchiectasis is a chronic lung disease that impairs quality of life and reduces life expectancy.
Research
Lung function changes in children exposed to mine fire smoke in infancyChronic, low-intensity air pollution exposure has been consistently associated with reduced lung function throughout childhood. However, there is limited research regarding the implications of acute, high-intensity air pollution exposure. We aimed to determine whether there were any associations between early life exposure to such an episode and lung growth trajectories.
