‼️Pf phage comes with initial Pseudomonas infection rather than being acquired later. This indicates Pf phage presence may prognosticate outcomes, and it makes an appealing therapeutic target! @juliepourtois.bsky.social @pbollyky.bsky.social

Cystic Fibrosis Family Education Night last night was a refreshing and rejuvenating event bringing together families and providers. And the panel of CHLA graduates was inspiring!!

New article alert!! - New Pseudomonas infections drive Pf phage transmission in CF airways iir latest pub is out in JCI Insight insight.jci.org/articles/vie...

This is powerful. publications.aap.org/pediatrics/a...

I support it. 100%

I had a great time telling the incredible story of CFTR modulators at CHLA grand rounds today! Including our experience using CFTR modulators in utero to prevent complications of cystic fibrosis!!

How to Protect Kids From Bad Air Quality During Fires CHLA pulmonologists and pediatric specialists share key information about the risks of dangerous air exposure and how to keep infants and kids safe.

Info on the wildfire smoke and mental health for those in the Los Angeles area, from my colleagues Dr. Shirleen Kohn and Roberta Kato! www.chla.org/blog/advice-...

A little late (we’ve had some distracting events in LA recently) but I’m putting my CHLA division of pulmonary medicine calendar!! Thanks, Dr. Keens!!

Help Those Impacted By Wildfires Your donation to CHLA’s Wildfire Recovery Fund will provide crucial support for hospital team members, patients and their families affected by the devastating fires.

If you're looking to support those affected by the wildfires in Los Aneles, funds donated here will go toward patients, families and team members affected by the fires. #community

We are looking for a motivated and energetic post doc to work on our research team at Children's Hospital Los Angeles on projects related to bacteriophage, antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial tolerance in cystic fibrosis and chronic airway infection! jobs.chla.org/careers-home...

Thanks for being on call and taking care of the service!! Merry Christmas!!

Feeling festive! Lab holiday gifts for the INSPIRE collaborative!!

Can you add me?? Thank you!!

Happy Holidays from the CHLA Cystic Fibrosis Research Team!!

Had some fun presenting our work on Pf phage with Paul Bollyky at Global Clinical Phage Rounds this morning! @ginasuhmd.bsky.social thanks for the invite and highlighting our work!!

A blueprint for broadly effective bacteriophage-antibiotic cocktails against bacterial infections - Nature Communications The application of phage therapy for multidrug-resistant infections is mainly limited to personalized therapy due to the narrow host range of individual phages. Here, Kim et al. identify groups of pha...

Wondering how phages should be picked for bacteriophage therapy cocktails?? Take a look at Kevin Kim’s blueprint published in Nature Communications this week! Another fun Bollyky lab collaboration!
