To honor pioneers in CF during May, CF Awareness Month we are showcasing this pioneer. Dee Acquazzino was Pediatric Clinic Program Coordinator for 44 years as the CF at the Nebraska Regional CF Center in Omaha, NE. Dee was around when enzymes weren’t encoded and saw the difference in absorption when the change was made. She talks about what she learned while working at the Nebraska clinic, and about her hope for the future. Hint: she sees a cure for CF in the future.
