Every single response matters! Yet, we are stronger with numbers...that is why if we are serious about an app where each person owns their own data and we can choose to share it for Discovery, Research and Profit...we need the MOST participants!

So if you already took the survey...talk about it, share it, send it to people in your network!

It resides at :

www.cftechnology.org

The 500th Participant gets a $50.00 Gift Card...we are almost there!

We have 509 responses! So many great comments too. Tamika Grubbs RN and I will be presenting some of this great information at the PanagoraPharma.com conference in Summit NJ on Monday!
Thank you all for keeping the survey front row on all the Social Media sites. We have great things going on behind the scenes...this survey is getting attention and you are stating your Data is Valuable, you own it, and there should be a way for you to get into this very valuable Marketplace! If you haven't taken the survey, please join us~

Thank you! The 525th respondent received the $25.00 Gift certificate. They hailed from FLORIDA! We have contacted the Israeli CFF and they will introduce us to the heads of the European CFF...Do you think we will reach 1000 participants?
A $25.00 GIFT certificate is offered to the 550 participant. Of course, it is great to get a gift certificate...but every participant matters!

543 Responses from 48 states! and 22 countries~ We are still aiming for 1000! The 550 respondent ...$25.00 gift card.
Thanks everyone! It is having a ripple effect as more people are becoming curious.
Of course, there is a lot of work left to do as we leave the known world of "not being paid for our data"...and forge new paths into the patients being in the Market Place. Stay Tuned!

Jeanne, congratulations on this new record and thanks to the people who have become participants. I'm hoping to see the number grow to a thousand, or more. The CF community represent an "island community", distinguished by our CF. We're also medically scrutinized considerably more than a healthy person. Most of us have been tested for CFTR mutations and a great deal of study has been devoted to CF. Maximize your time invested in the added medical visits and join the Personal Genomics movement.

We all win,
LL

I found myself in a lively discussion with one of my doctor's about the business of Genomics and what they really want. Dr. "Nancy" was remarking that she'd completed her Christmas shopping, buying 23&Me for pretty much everyone in the family. This amounted to about 20 people. My doctor isn't stupid, she's aware that the $50 presents are not going to pay for the tests, they couldn't do it at $100 so they are making money at half the price.

She showed me the details of the contract and you can agree to allow your depersonalized data used for science. They don't tell you that they intend to sell your depersonalized data to R&D facilities in pharmaceutical companies and Universities. Dr. Nancy sees nothing but good things coming from doing this. Her family will know more about their genetics and who knows what great discoveries can come from Science Research to help them down the road.

What 23&me, Ancestry.com, Helix and now other consumer genetic services are missing, could fill a book. They have the ability to further analyze your genetics and sell it. They are currently pretty sketchy tests. The quality of genetic testing depends on robust DNA amplification, more time on a critical process, the better. Sort of like laundry, a swish in the sink, delicate, Permanent Press and heavy duty each cleans the clothing better, revealing subtle shades of color clearly.

I'm hoping to see 1000 plus. We should have every CFer and CF family in this. With stuff for monitoring our bodies like Fitbit and blue tooth features on our spirometry, glucose levels, plus all of the tests we CFers have way too many of, images and imaging reports paint an incredibly detailed profile, gathering the past and monitoring the present all bundled together and zipped up with our DNA to make an enormously valuable Genomic Diary, a virtual person who has a health file of gold. Not the same as consumer genetic services and like software, sold over and over.

Jeanne has been the driving force behind this and it is for us. An added bonus is a small portion of the sale of our Genomic Diaries is going to fund CysticFibrosis.com now and for the future. She's devoted over 20 years of her life to providing a voice for the CF community. It's high time we paid her back.

Please take the Survey and continue to participate in this fantastic opportunity!!!

Thanks LittleLab4CF for this great testimonial! Yes! We should continue with our survey and their is a big difference in the sequencing from companies like 23 and me and Ancestry.com

Today, 23andMe ( 23andme.com ) and Ancestry ( ancestry.com ) are the two leading
personal genomics companies. Both use DNA microarray-based genotyping for their genetic
tests. It is an outdated and significantly less powerful alternative to DNA sequencing. Instead of
sequencing continuous stretches of DNA, genotyping identifies single letters spaced at
approximately regular intervals across the genome. While human whole genome sequencing
determines ~ 6.4 billion letters, microarray-based genotyping used by 23andMe and Ancestry
identifies letters at only ~ 600.000 positions. Thus it generates small amounts of data that are of
limited value to individual data owners and researchers.
Individuals can learn much more about their personal genetic makeup from whole
genome sequencing data and our work with Corey Nislow and the University of British Columbia has the whole genome sequencing data!
We know through our survey that our community...does want to know if their data is sold to others and Yes! 23 and Me and others do sell the data they garnish even to pharma companies...like Genentech!
So CARRY ON...
if you have not taken our survey...

We are closing in on a thousand participants!

Wow! We are almost to 1000 paraticipants.

For those of you who have already taken the survey, you know we are seeking, exploring, and interviewing companies that have or who are willing to work with us at developing a "high quality trait information platform". This will be able to track all your lifestyle and health information. We have been known to be the place where doctors "key in" to see how medications are working for our community.
Now, we are aiming to provide "standardized data formats" . You will decide if you want to share this information and we are definitely on the watch to get you PAID for this important data information!

so Thank YOU ...if you took the survey...and there is power in numbers as we go to 1000 participants and beyond!
and please take it at:
www.cftechnology.org if you haven't already.
And YES! We are global...a person just in from Sweden asked: Is this for people in Europe?

YES! we have members taking the survey from over 22 countries and 49 states!
Our latest country is PERU.

Please JOIN us and Donate to our cause if you can! March 1 we will announce winners for INdrepta. We have joined with the Indrepta team to sponsor awareness of their botanicals for CF and our survey.

The 975 participant and 1000 will each be awarded a $25.00 gift card

This looks like the week, we WILL reach 1000 participant! We are at 989! And two participants have come in from The Russian Federation!

So what's next?
1. We will leave the survey open...why? because it is a tool for education..we are learning from the answers and you may be learning from the questions. AND there is strength in NUMBERS!

2. Corey Nislow, PhD of the University of British Columbia and I have meetings coming up with a respiratory company in Spain and Portugal and the CFF of Israel (they are very interested in suppporting our efforts) and an app company in Toronto.

3. For those of you who are interested in digging deeper into what can be discovered with exome sequencing and Blockchain, I offer you this link: https://www.genengnews.com/gen-news...m_campaign=gen+daily+news+highlights_20180208

So KNOW, we are listening and moving into discovering the NEXT STEPS!

We have a great team...as Blake is ready to move on a new video (he did our great one minute video at www.cftechnology.org), describing our work, and Melissa75 is a great editor.

If you are working in this space: Blockchain/ExomeSequencing or just have ideas or want to make a donation...please contact me at info@cysticfibrosis.com.

More and more are joining in! This is so important as we get ready to move to the next steps...dreaming of marrying AI and Blockchain?

LittleLab4CF and I share our text messages...(of course I have to "look up" lots of definitions that he just "knows"!)

so I add the links for your learning enjoyment!

Our conversation....

and keep on coming to the survey...we have a lineup! www.cftechnology.org.

The last participant was from California and over 70 years old! How valuable is she?
Yet! Everyone is valuable!

As we get ready to explore even more...self manage...with the right tools!

App/ Education/ AI/ Blockchain...and more....
