"This is a good example of researchers with different expertise coming together and using the knowledge gained from mapping the human genome to make discoveries that improve our understanding of cystic fibrosis," Nature magazine quoted Carl Langefeld, Ph. D., a study co-author and Wake Forest University School of Medicine researcher as saying.
