Congratulations to the Health Equity Across the Lifespan (HEAL-CF) project on receiving the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Clinical Research Award for 2024! This team is led by Dr. Rhonda Szczesniak.

This is part of the Foundation’s commitment to address systemic barriers that lead to health inequities… These awards are given to projects aiming to improve our understanding of or have a positive impact on identified barriers to optimal health outcomes for all people with CF-related to race and ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender, or socioeconomic status.”


HEAL-CF won the clinical research award for their work titled, “Genome-sociome informed risk (G-SIR) prediction tools for enhanced clinical management and promotion of health equity across the lifespan”.
