A multidisciplinary research team including Sam Nugen's group at Cornell University, Betty Kutter's group at Evergreen State College, and Lone Brøndsted's group at the University of Copenhagen, has received a $2.6 million NIH grant to study phage-based detection of pathogens in drinking water. They'll be developing methods of rapidly customizing the host range of magnetic phages to improve pathogen sensing.
