Cystic Fibrosis & Exercise Journal Club
The Youth Activity Unlimited Group has established an online academic journal club to discuss all aspects of cystic fibrosis and exercise. This is intended for academic researchers and clinicians involved in the management of CF to foster an interdisciplinary environment of discussion and debate for educational and training purposes.
If you are interested in getting involved, or would like to watch previous presentations, please email Dr Owen Tomlinson: o.w.tomlinson@exeter.ac.uk.
