NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins on Trikafta and CF

Just over a week after Trikafta (Vertex Pharma) was approved by the FDA, five months ahead of schedule, five thousand people from the CF community were in Nashville, TN to attend the North American CF Conference. As the Founder/President of The Bonnell Foundation and mother of two daughters with cystic fibrosis I was thrilled to interview National Institute of Health (NIH) Director Dr. Francis Collins.
