Gary Connett

Professor Gary Connett is a faculty member at the University of Southampton, specializing in cystic fibrosis (CF) research. His work focuses on pulmonary physiology, exercise capacity, and nutritional interventions in CF patients. He leads projects like the CF biobank and the Personalised Approach to Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAPA), collaborating with researchers such as Dr. Claire Jackson and Prof. Jane Lucas. Recent studies include evaluating CFTR modulators' effects on muscle function and vitamin D's role in lung health.

His research spans clinical trials, genetic mutations (e.g., GUCY2C), and transition care for adolescents with diabetes. He currently supervises PhD student Declan Matthew Power in Biological Sciences and maintains an active publication record in journals like Pediatric Pulmonology and Redox Biology. No scientific awards are listed, but his work contributes significantly to CF care standards and patient outcomes.
