Phages for Global Health is planning to deliver hands-on phage workshops in Africa and Asia again, with a new curriculum that incorporates the best parts of the virtual teaching from the past year into an updated workshop curriculum with 2 components:

• A series of virtual lectures through which phage experts from around the world will teach the key aspects of phage biology and discuss potential antibacterial applications of phages in crops, aquaculture, animals and people
• An in-person training during which the participants will practice isolating phages from local environments in Africa and Asia and begin characterizing them

Their goal is to deliver two trainings in 2023: one for scientists from Southeast Asia and one for those in West Africa. In order to accomplish that, we need to raise the necessary funds. Please consider partnering with Phages for Global Health by making a tax deductible donation!
