- Cystic Fibrosis Ibuprofen Laboratory
- DESCRIPTION:The CF Ibuprofen Laboratory was formed to provide ibuprofen analyses and therapeutic recommendations for cystic fibrosis patients. It facilitates physicians in performing an Ibuprofen Test, which is used to determine the appropriate dose of ibuprofen for individual patient ibuprofen therapy.

- Pseudomonas Gene Project
- DESCRIPTION:The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes significant infections in humans. People with cystic fibrosis, burn victims, individuals with cancer, and patients requiring extensive stays in intensive care units are particularly at risk. Greater knowledge of the DNA sequence of the Pseudomonas genome will suggest directions for novel drug development and new therapeutic strategies for treating these infections.In order to accelerate the development of new therapeutics for people with cystic fibrosis, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, the University of Washington Genome Center and PathoGenesis Corporation are collaborating on a two-year project to determine this pathogen's complete genetic make-up -- estimated at over 5,000 genes. To expedite the availability of this information to the world-wide research community, the sequences generated by the Pseudomonas Genome Project are being published at this Internet site with quarterly updates.
