My doctor asked me if I was comfortable taking antibiotics and I immediately started monologuing about how to weigh the costs and benefits of contributing to the rise of drug-resistant bacteria and superbugs but it turns out she just wanted to know if I was okay maybe getting diarrhea.
As additional Appendix to my #introduction, I would like to #boost our recent #DrugDiscovery efforts in the field of #CysticFibrosis: we have developed #MultiTarget compounds acting at the same time as #CFTR #Correctors and #Antibacterials or #Antivirals depending on the specific functionalization of the same chemotype.
