Sounds really cool stuff (company is private I think, so nothing from an investment perspective).

Even if it's only a subset, anything which works for CF would be more than welcome.

...nonsense mutations are the cause of CF in approximately 10% of patients in the United States.

Thanks..musta' been at JPMorgan..my fave patient of my entire career died in London, awaiting a lung transplant in 1990..just a coupla' years too sick..she went kicking; taking on the entire Harvard system with her activism..her friends at Harvard Crimson got print in the NYT after her death..I was called to my supervisor for sneaking her out of the hospital to get a lead on a story downtown..reason?..her doc looked the other way while a fellow nurses wimped out on the 'conspiracy.'

Life is very interesting..
