The NHLBI is working on a system to predict lung function/decline, far in advance to any issues.

Investigators are studying the CFTR protein folding to find better solutions for patients with rare variants of CF.

Researchers are using non-invasive, radiation-free imaging and proteomic biomarkers to diagnose and monitor lung disease progression in children with CF.

Studies are testing whether a medicine to correct acid problems in the blood can also help reduce acid levels in the airways, which can then prevent or reduce the development of CF
