Research opportunity: Supporting the development of scanning technology in cystic fibrosis – discussion groups

30/09/2024

The MAGNIFY SRC, funded by the CF, Trust is focused on exploring the use of lung magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in CF. Lung MRI has the potential to help in both the monitoring and management of CF, as well as in testing new inhaled therapies.The SRC includes a number of separate PhD projects, including this one, focused on developing materials to help healthcare professionals, people with CF and their carers better understand and discuss the results of lung MRI scans. Would you please consider joining a discussion group to help inform this work?The details are available here – I would be grateful if you would consider taking part and sharing the opportunity with others who may be interested in doing the same.If you have any queries about the research then please do not hesitate to contact Daniel Beever, PhD student at [email protected].You can also find out more information about the MAGNIFY SRC here.

As part of our research programme, we are developing a resource to help communicate the results of lung magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.We are looking for individuals living in the UK with an interest in research and helping to improve CF care to join our Toolkit Development Group, part of our MAGNIFY Research Community.This is an exciting opportunity to be directly involved in developing a new resource for use in CF research & potentially, future care. The work of the group will begin in March 2025.You can find out further information about the opportunity here. If you wish to get involved then please email Dan Beever at [email protected].
