We are delighted to announce Dr Jayanth Kumar Narayana @JayanthKumarNa7 as a touchRESPIRATORY Future Leader 2026! Working at the intersection of data science and respiratory medicine, Dr Jayanth Kumar Narayana applies mathematical modelling, statistical learning, and microbiome analysis to advance understanding of bronchiectasis and improve approaches to precision care. In this interview, he reflects on what inspired his career path, a defining breakthrough in his research, and the innovations in bronchiectasis and the respiratory microbiome that excite him most.

Want to reduce your hospitalisations, deaths and use of critical care? Vaccinate your patients! Lovely data from Dr Fu and collegues

Fantastic overview of use of tobramycin nebulisers and eradication of pseudomonas in patients with BE from Jin-fu Xu Perhaps we can ditch the ciprofloxacin and the many risky side effects? Exciting data to see #ERSCongress

Macrolides work in bronchiectasis. Lovely to see an analysis of this from @MattiaNigro23. Next up some longer term studies! #ERSCongress

Bronchoscopy washout with N-acetylcysteine found a significant difference in time to first exacerbation in BE vs BAL with saline or standard care. Great to hear how the rest of the world are trialling BE treatments data from Hongying Ma #ERSCongress

“With a greater understanding of biology there is a greater understanding of therapeutics” AZU-1 is associated with worse disease severity but what happens to the cilia? If you add AZU-1 to cilia it slows them down Fantastic insights from @Shoemelia @dundeeuni #ERSCongress

EMBARC paper below shows that those who develop bronchiectasis in childhood have worse disease in adulthood. What factors affect disease resolution? Study here showing those who do/don’t. #pseudomoas associated with worse outcomes #ERSCongress

Wild fires & smog lead to hospitalisations. Hospitalisations cost £ (great nature article below) & are a predictor of worsening disease trajectory but how? Fantastic to see some science behind the mechanisms from France including some potential treatment targets

Did you know bacteria can use microplastics to better invade the respiratory tract? Incredible to see the data carried out in Barcelona demonstrating this. #ERSCongress #airpollution #zerowaste

Really interesting to hear how INBARC (Indian bronchiectasis registry) is using a platform style approach to recruit patients to the registry & further trials. This looks one to watch #ERSCongress Shout out to all the EMBARC teams
