Cystic fibrosis is a progressive, genetic disease. People with CF have inherited two copies of the defective CF gene — one copy from each parent. Both parents must have at least one copy of the defective gene. #CFAwarenessMonth

Saturday long run. I don't run for distance. I run for clarity. Some days, it just takes longer. @higdonmarathon – at Columbus, OH

👇 love this! Way to go Grace! #WeRunTilWeAreDone
Grace Lidgett, a teen with cystic fibrosis, was told to stick to sprints because her CF would make it difficult to become a distance runner. Grace was determined to prove CF wouldn't hold her back from her goals. on.cff.org/3YRUZek

We are investing up to $2M in Nanite Inc. to explore a new way to deliver genetic therapies into the lungs of people with #cysticfibrosis. Polymer nanoparticles could potentially be safer and may be more versatile and stable than other delivery methods. on.cff.org/3yYhV1b
