Inspired by the concept of blooming, our gala theme is Efflorescence. This year, EE is turning 13 — a true coming of age. For so long, we have laid the groundwork to accelerate lifesaving advances for the final 10% of the CF community that does not benefit from current mutation-targeted therapies. Now, for the first time, we are seeing the fruits of our labor. Efflorescence represents ourmaturation into this exciting new stage filled with hope, prosperity, and potential.
