Could tiny droplets released by cells help show when a lung flare-up is starting before it becomes more serious? That is exactly what Dr. Augusto Zani and his team are exploring thanks to a Seed Grant from Cystic Fibrosis Canada!

By studying these tiny droplets or “messages” in the lungs, the team hopes to better understand what is happening during illness and recovery. Their findings could one day help doctors spot flare-ups earlier, see how treatments are working and reduce the need for more invasive tests.

What started as a small grant has already led to published findings, new follow-up studies and the potential for a whole new way of understanding CF lung infections.

“One thing I can tell you is that nothing in life is impossible and to keep striving for more. If you want to be a professional cyclist, if you want to be a professional swimmer – try it, do it, and push yourself. That’s what ultimately matters.” - Alexandre

For Alexandre, young cycling enthusiast living with cystic fibrosis, anything is possible when treatments, nutrition, and training are well managed. Sport is an essential part of his daily life – from cycling to alpine skiing. CF has never stopped him from making his health a priority. Thanks to advances in research and the arrival of new medications, he can now lead a more balanced life with fewer daily treatments. Research has changed his future.

Discover more about Alexandre’s story in the video.

New: We’re investing $1M+ into more cystic fibrosis research. These seven new projects are tackling some of the biggest challenges facing people with CF today: chronic lung infections, treatment burden, the need for more personalized care. And for the first time, a study looking at CF and pregnancy - because life with CF is changing.

Progress is real. But it’s not equal. And living longer should also mean living without limits. 🔗 See exactly what our $1M+ investment is funding https://bit.ly/4m5jm5x
