Media reports on UMaine study about drug treatments for fungal pathogens
The Bangor Daily News, Lab Roots, Daily Bulldog, Medical Xpress, News Azi, News Medical, Cystic Fibrosis News Today and RT Magazine reported on a UMaine study that found pathogens don’t always work against drug treatments. Sometimes, they can strengthen them.
