It also offers readers potential insights into public policies that affect the health status of a population. |
| cystic fibrosis financial help: The CTSA Program at NIH Institute of Medicine, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Committee to Review the Clinical and Translational Science Awards Program at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, 2013-10-09 In 2006 the National Institutes of Health (NIH) established the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program, recognizing the need for a new impetus to encourage clinical and translational research. At the time it was very difficult to translate basic and clinical research into clinical and community practice; making it difficult for individual patients and communities to receive its benefits. Since its creation the CTSA Program has expanded, with 61 sites spread across the nation's academic health centers and other institutions, hoping to provide catalysts and test beds for policies and practices that can benefit clinical and translation research organizations throughout the country. The NIH contracted with the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in 2012 to conduct a study to assess and provide recommendations on appropriateness of the CTSA Program's mission and strategic goals and whether changes were needed. The study was also address the implementation of the program by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) while exploring the CTSA's contributions in the acceleration of the development of new therapeutics. A 13-member committee was established to head this task; the committee had collective expertise in community outreach and engagement, public health and health policy, bioethics, education and training, pharmaceutical research and development, program evaluation, clinical and biomedical research, and child health research. The CTSA Program at NIH: Opportunities for Advancing Clinical and Translational Research is the result of investigations into previous program evaluations and assessments, open-session meetings and conference class, and the review of scientific literature. Overall, the committee believes that the CTSA Program is significant to the advancement of clinical and translational research through its contributions. The Program would benefit from a variety of revisions, however, to make it more efficient and effective. |

| cystic fibrosis financial help: Sphingolipids Gerhild van Echten-Deckert, 2021-08-30 Although sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of cellular membranes, their abundance in cells is generally lower than glycerolipids or cholesterol, representing less than 20% of total lipid mass. Following their discovery in the brain—which contains the largest amounts of sphingolipids in the body—and first description in 1884 by J.L.W. Thudichum, sphingolipids have been overlooked for almost a century, perhaps due to their complexity and enigmatic nature. When sphingolipidoses were discovered, a series of inherited diseases caused by enzyme mutations involved in sphingolipid degradation returned to the limelight. The essential breakthrough came decades later, in the 1990s, with the discovery that sphingolipids were not just structural elements of cellular membranes but intra- and extracellular signaling molecules. It turned out that their lipid backbones, including ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate, had selective physiological functions. Thus, sphingolipids emerged as essential players in several pathologies including cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases. The present volume reflects upon the unexpectedly eclectic functions of sphingolipids in health, disease, and therapy. This fascinating lipid class will continue to be the subject of up-and-coming future discoveries, especially with regard to new therapeutic strategies. |

| cystic fibrosis financial help: Breakthrough Business Models Institute of Medicine, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation, Robert Giffin, Sally Robinson, Theresa Wizemann, 2009-03-17 The process for developing new drug and biologic products is extraordinarily expensive and time-consuming. Although large pharmaceutical companies may be able to afford the cost of development because they can expect a large return on investment, organizations developing drugs to treat rare and neglected diseases are unable to rely on such returns. On June 23, 2008, the Institute of Medicine's Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation held a public workshop, Breakthrough Business Models: Drug Development for Rare and Neglected Diseases and Individualized Therapies, which sought to explore new and innovative strategies for developing drugs for rare and neglected diseases. |

| cystic fibrosis financial help: Salt in My Soul Mallory Smith, 2019-03-12 The diaries of a remarkable young woman who was determined to live a meaningful and happy life despite her struggle with cystic fibrosis and a rare superbug—from age fifteen to her death at the age of twenty-five—the inspiration for the original streaming documentary Salt in My Soul “An exquisitely nuanced chronicle of a terrified but hopeful young woman whose life was beginning and ending, all at once.”—Los Angeles Times Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at the age of three, Mallory Smith grew up to be a determined, talented young woman who inspired others even as she privately raged against her illness. Despite the daily challenges of endless medical treatments and a deep understanding that she’d never lead a normal life, Mallory was determined to “Live Happy,” a mantra she followed until her death. Mallory worked hard to make the most out of the limited time she had, graduating Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford University, becoming a cystic fibrosis advocate well known in the CF community, and embarking on a career as a professional writer. Along the way, she cultivated countless intimate friendships and ultimately found love. For more than ten years, Mallory recorded her thoughts and observations about struggles and feelings too personal to share during her life, leaving instructions for her mother to publish her work posthumously. She hoped that her writing would offer insight to those living with, or loving someone with, chronic illness. What emerges is a powerful and inspiring portrait of a brave young woman and blossoming writer who did not allow herself to be defined by disease. Her words offer comfort and hope to readers, even as she herself was facing death. Salt in My Soul is a beautifully crafted, intimate, and poignant tribute to a short life well lived—and a call for all of us to embrace our own lives as fully as possible. |

| cystic fibrosis financial help: Coughing It All Up Luke Peters, 2020-12 Born in 1972, Luke Peters was diagnosed with the chronic and life-limiting condition cystic fibrosis. His parents were told it was likely that he would spend much of his childhood in hospital and would be lucky to reach his teenage years. Almost 50 years later, Luke is still alive, still fending off the impacts of this disease with one hand whilst grabbing life and all that it has to offer with the other. With a steadfast resolve to fulfil his ambitions and a determination not to let cystic fibrosis define him, Luke has filled his life with achievements that few would have predicted possible at his birth. With two academic degrees under his belt, successful careers both in aviation and as a lawyer, time spent living both in France and the United States as well as travels to over forty countries worldwide, a pilot's licence and two healthy children, Luke has always aimed to take as much out of life as possible before the ravages of cystic fibrosis take the life out of him. From amazing highs to the very depths of sadness and on more than one occasion when he has almost lost his life, Luke's book describes in vivid detail the twists and turns that he has endured during his life so far. Now facing the proposition of a double lung transplant, which could save his life but could also end it, Luke describes the events that have brought him to this point, how he has dealt with each of them and how he has continuously strived to live his life to be just the same as everyone else, whilst accepting that it is okay to be different. 'Coughing It All Up' is a testament to the power of a positive outlook, and will have you smiling, laughing and crying in equal measure. A share of the proceeds from the book will go to CF-related charities. |
