The Northern New England Cystic Fibrosis Consortium has been in existence for two plus decades. Sharing information, quality improvement projects and research has added value and improved care in all three CF centers (Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont) that have participated in this consortium.

This year we will continue our tradition of case based interdisciplinary discussions, discipline specific breakout sessions and plenaries that will include a review updates in women’s health issues for CF patients and the lung transplantation journey of CF patients.
