Daniel Peckham MBBS, DM, FRCP

Daniel Peckham graduated from Westminster and Charing Cross Medical School (University of London) in 1987. In 1992, he was appointed adult cystic fibrosis research fellow at City Hospital in Nottingham where I completed my doctoral thesis “Airway Epithelial Sodium Potassium ATPase activity and Cystic Fibrosis”. Working in Nottingham triggered my passion for research and cystic fibrosis. After working as a senior registrar in Oxford, he moved to Leeds in 1998 as a full time NHS consultant with a specialist interest in Cystic Fibrosis and Pulmonary infections. In 2016, he was appointed as the first Professor of Respiratory Medicine at the University of Leeds. As lead for Respiratory medicine and cystic fibrosis, he continue to combine clinical practice with scientific research.
