Clinical treatments for cystic fibrosis (CF) underwent significant changes in the last decade as therapies targeting the basic defect in the CFTR protein were approved. Significant scientific progress has also been made in several other areas that may lead in the future to novel therapeutic approaches that can help fight CF in all individuals living with this disease. Thus, focusing on fundamental research in the CF field has and will continue to be of great importance. This has been one of the aims of the European Cystic Fibrosis Society (ECFS), which has promoted the ECFS Basic Science Conference (BSC) every year since 2004. This special issue covers the topics featured and discussed at the 17thECFS BSC, held in Albufeira (Portugal) in March 2022, and highlights advances in understanding CFTR, in using personalized medicine, and in developing innovative strategies to identify breakthrough therapies. This introduction highlights the topics presented throughout this special issue, thereby underscoring the relevance of fundamental research in CF.
