.Sarah Sleet ‘increased investment in respiratory research is crucial to transforming lung health. Especially for the poorest communities who are 7x more likely to die from a lung condition’ #FundRespiratoryResearch

Today I visited The University of Manchester with @ALUK_Research to hear about their fantastic research to understand how to treat lung conditions like asthma. We need more research like this to be able to make a real difference to people’s lives in the North West. #FundRespiratoryResearch

So proud to see this report published today; every 5 minutes someone dies from a lung condition, and a timely and accurate diagnosis is the fundamental first step to being able to save these lives. bit.ly/TransformingDi…

Breaking: Inhibition of Cathepsin C prolongs time to first exacerbation in bronchiectasis in the AIRLEAF study, and will proceed to phase III in early 2025 #WBConf24

Research can't happen without patients. It's fantastic to see James D Chalmers and #WBC2024 integrating conference sessions specifically for patients within the main programme

📢HURRY! APPLY NOW for one of our ERS travel awards! There's still time: deadline is 3pm, Monday 15th July 2024. 👇👇👇

Today, the government announced in the #KingsSpeech that they will bring back the Tobacco and Vapes Bill. This means that children born today will never be able to buy tobacco, protecting thousands of families from the pain of losing their loved one to a lung condition.

We're proud to have funded AUKCAR for 10 years and to see that their work had been recognised in AMRC's new report. Investing in the infrastructure that enables research to thrive is the only way we can save and improve the lives of people affected by lung conditions.

We're collaborating with LifeArc to raise awareness and support the advancement of new innovations and research into bronchiectasis. By working together, we can understand how best to invest in research and help change the way this condition is treated, managed and understood.

A powerful quote today from Hilde De Keyser, #CysticFibrosisEurope talking about the Twinning Expansion Project and patient-driven healthcare. "When you replace I with we, illness becomes wellness!" #ERSCongress #PatOrgDay2024

That time of year again... Excited to hear all the latest respiratory breakthroughs here in stunning Vienna #ERSCongress

Always a highlight of the conference to meet our Asthma + Lung UK Research travel award winners (aka future respiratory stars 🌟 🌟 🌟)

Long-term exposure to air pollution and a lack of access to green spaces increases the risk of hospitalisation for respiratory conditions. Toxic air is a public health emergency. This research is further evidence that urgent action is needed to tackle the problem. #ERSCongress
