Hello everyone! My name is Melissa and I am a 3rd year grad student in the Biology department at the University of Alabama at Birmingham researching the mechanics of phage evolution. I am seeking obligately lytic phages that target Pseudomonas (preferably aeruginosa), E. coli or S. aureus for use in my evolutionary studies. Host bacterial strains for strain specific phage would also be appreciated.

I would also like to connect with researchers who have experience in culturing and infecting Pseudomonas. There are some quizzical results that I would love to discuss!

You can contact me at sfidemw@uab.edu. I appreciate all your help. Hope you have a wonderful day! Warmest Regards, Melissa
