Today’s featured photographer is Jack with his submission titled “World Hope”.
“The heterogeneity of PCD makes it a challenging disease to diagnose, and treat. Not all PCD genes have been identified, and causative pathogenic variants are not being found in 30% of patients; moreover, a large proportion of PCD individuals have mutations with the still unconfirmed association with the disease. The increasing access to modern technologies of DNA analysis, the availability of various model organisms for studying the biology of candidate genes and the effect of newly identified mutations, and the increasing understanding of the genotype–phenotype relationship, should increase the efficiency of molecular diagnosis in patients and foster further studies on the practical application of new therapies, to improve the quality of life for PCD patients.” ~ Editorial; “Perspectives for Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia” ~ Zuzanna Bukowy-Bieryllo, Michal Witt and Ewa Zietkiewicz
The PCD Artist Project is a collaborative effort by artist to raise awareness for PCD or primary ciliary dyskinesia and support the PCD Smiles program. Each artist who submitted art work to the project either has PCD or has a PCD friend or family member.
The PCD Artist Project’s 2023 exhibition merchandise ranges from apparel, giftware, home furnishings, and printed products such as posters, prints, wall art, and other items, all created from our exhibition; which can be viewed on PCD Smiles’s website.
