Wheels up from Washington, D.C. ✈️

Two productive days for the chronic cough community: a full-day Patient-Focused Drug Development meeting with the FDA, followed by a chronic cough coding workshop.

Better policy and proper coding help people living with chronic cough get the right diagnosis and the right treatment. 🫁

More to come. Thank you, GAAPP family, for your support! 💙

Good morning from Washington, D.C.! 🇺🇸

Today, a group of patients living with chronic cough are meeting with the FDA to share what life with chronic cough is really like. From refractory chronic cough and IPF/ILD cough to asthma, COPD and bronchiectasis, many people cough hundreds of times a day, and millions are affected worldwide.

Their voices matter. 💬

🔴 Watch the livestream at letstalkcough.org, starting at 10 a.m. ET.

This weekend, our GAAPP team was in Barcelona for the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Conference 2026, connecting with leading researchers, clinicians, and patient advocates from around the world.

From promising breakthroughs in gene editing and RNA-based therapies to a deeper understanding of how Alpha-1 affects both the lungs and the liver, the future of care is evolving fast.

As Stephanie Williams, our Senior Director of Education, shares: Alpha-1 isn't just about the lungs or the liver—it's about understanding the connection between both organs. One gene, two organs, one community!

A huge thank you to EARCO and ERS for hosting such an impactful event, driving advancements forward.

Care happens with the patient, not just for them. 🤝

From daily routines and school to work and future life plans, true chronic care goes far beyond the walls of a doctor's office. To create real impact, medical expertise must unite with the lived experience of the patient.

Our Community Engagement Manager, Bruna Rocha Pedroso, shared the stage today with our member organization ProAR Foundation in Brazil.

Watch until the end to hear why amplifying the patient voice is the key to better health outcomes worldwide.
