Funded Activity Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease of global importance. Exacerbations, mostly due to respiratory infection, are complications that lead to significant illness. This study will characterise the communities of microbes in the lung, and use this information to predict frequency of exacerbations of COPD measured over 12 months.
