Happy Thursday!

We hope everyone’s week is going well. Today, we’re highlighting a contribution from a cystinosis patient on the necessity of third-party medical providers. We’re also sharing a story about how a sponge may help people with ovarian culture, and an update on a Prader-Willi trial. Last but not least, we have an opinion piece discussing CF and the Bachelor.

Sit back and enjoy this week’s Editor’s Choice.
