Understanding bronchiectasis, one patient at a time.
INBARC connects patients, clinicians and researchers across India in a shared registry — building the long-term evidence needed to improve diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.
A NATIONAL RESEARCH NETWORK
WHAT WE STUDY
A condition that's under-researched, and under-recognised.
Bronchiectasis is a chronic lung condition where the airways become widened and scarred, making patients prone to repeated infections. Despite affecting hundreds of thousands of people in India, it remains poorly understood compared to other chronic lung diseases.
INBARC exists to close that gap — bringing together data from patients and clinicians across the country to build the evidence base clinicians need to diagnose earlier and treat better.
