ERS Conference on Friday
Hello! Were you able to attend the online webinar on The Highlights from the European Respiratory Society Conference? It is great to hear of the increasing interest in the Bronchiectasis/ NTM field. Maggie had inquired about the BEST BE Study. Was there a specific part of the conference that piqued your interest? We would love to hear your feedback.

Yes! It was wonderful to hear Dr. Chalmers give his talk on the highlights of the conference! I was especially excited about all the new research going on for us. The studies of MAC and antibiotics is always important. I was really surprised by the information about the work on AI being used to read CT scans to identify bacteria and type of infection in the lungs. Scary but good.
