Excited to share this work, now out in @NatureGenet . There is no cure for #COPD. To tackle this challenge, we performed nuclear sequencing, spatial transcriptomic, and proteomic analysis of lung tissue from 141 subjects to better understand this disease. nature.com/articles/s41588-0…

Today is #WorldAsthmaDay! Summer isn’t always an easy season when you have a lung condition.
Things like hay fever and hot weather can make breathing more difficult and stop you doing the things you love. This summer we want to inspire you with ways to achieve your goals ☀️
