Testimonials
Dr. Joshua Chandler (Emory)
“Access to the CF Discovery core is essential to my laboratory’s experiments. As a PhD scientist, reliable access to deidentified fresh and frozen clinical samples is a wonderful benefit that is difficult to overstate. Additionally, we have used the core’s well-organized clinical data – such as which patients are taking highly effective CFTR modulators – to make novel discoveries within our results and carve out new research directions.”
Dr. Balasz Rada (UGA)
"...The (Rada) laboratory is involved in tight collaborations with several investigators at the Emory University CF Center related to these projects. The CF Discovery Core has played essential roles in all of our CF-related projects by providing blood and sputum samples, bacterial isolates and live immune cells obtained from cystic fibrosis patients."
