Bottom Line: Current culture-based classifications under-estimate chronic infection in #CF!
👀pinned tweet on my timeline for brief study🧵 & implications
🙏 to all the patients who took part in this 3yr study
Great collaboration between @Manchester_cf & @MMU_CBS
Now out! Phage treatment of an individual with cystic fibrosis, advanced lung disease, and M. abscessus infection enabled a subsequent successful lung transplant!
