Nice presentation by Nils Wetzstein on the results of the MoMaCF study. New insights into M. abscessus DCCs and their role in infection in German CF patients #ECCMID2022 @SRLBorstel @FZBorstel @mukoinfo @stefan_niemann

[Irina Kontsevaya @biosquirrel_]

Happy to present our AnTBiotic consortium results at the #ECCMID2022
The first on-site congress in three years! Thank you @ESCMID @FZBorstel for this wonderful opportunity

[Stefan Niemann @stefan_niemann]

Fantastic start of ECCMID in Lisbon - Great to meet colleagues again in person and discuss TB and other relevant pathogens. Great start of the Borstel team, more to come. @FZBorstel @DZIF_ @medinflame @trans_evo @SRLBorstel
