5/8⚖️ Still many challenges remain. Phage therapy is experimental and each use needs approval by US FDA or other UK/EU regulatory authorities. Large-scale manufacturing & distributing phages is lacking, and treatment dosages need to be carefully considered for clinical trials.

👇Women are significantly less likely to be named on articles or patents compared to their male peers - not even slightly surprised by these findings unfortunately.
In case you missed it: Women are less likely to be credited for their scientific contributions than men. It’s true across multiple fields & at all stages, with important repercussions for career progress. #WomenInSTEM #WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
