Delighted to be collaborating with Carly Whitmore in a meta-ethnography literature review that will build a solid foundation for the development of a set of patient-inspired health concepts in bronchiectasis. PROSPERO: crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/displ…

As a first activity in our PIVOT bronchiectasis project, we are asking how individuals living with a diagnosis of bronchiectasis describe the sensory experiences of the condition and in what ways do these experiences impact their day-to-day activities and quality of life.

Prostate cancer affects so many men. There’s a film being made to raise awareness about early detection, and it needs our help. Please consider donating and sharing. Every little bit counts! gofund.me/cb5ee409

Thanks to co-authors (Bruce Miller, Nancy Leidy, Ashley Duenas, Soren Skovlund), and Patient Research Partners (John Torrence, John Linnell, Jean Rommes, Mary Kitlowski, Katie Keating), for thought-provoking, enlightening discussions #PIVOT #COPD #COPDFoundation #clinicaltrials

Sharing our recent PIVOT commentary, to be included in the Innovations and Provocations section of the Annals of ATS. The commentary presents a value proposition for a unified set of patient-inspired heath concepts in COPD as a north star for understanding treatment benefit.
