The PASTEUR Act is a US bill that would incentivize the development of antibiotics. The Pew Charitable Trusts is urging people to ask their members of Congress to include the PASTEUR Act in the congressional omnibus package that lawmakers a

In a new paper in Cell Chemical Biology, Quirin Emslander and colleagues present a new cell-free platform for personalized production, transient engineering, and proteomic characterization of a broad spectrum of phages.

Emily Agnello et al. present the structure of the P74-26 tail tube and introduce an in vitro system for studying the kinetics of tube assembly.

In a new paper published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, Martin Guillemet et al. study the effect of coevolving phage populations on the diversification of bacterial CRISPR immunity across space and time. They demonstrate that the negative-f

In a new preprint on bioRxiv, Eligo Bioscience researchers engineer a phage-derived particle to deliver a base editor and modify E. coli colonizing the mouse gut.

We are urgently seeking Enterobacter cloacae phages for a patient in the UK. Ways to help at this stage: - By sending your phages for testing on the patient's strains - By receiving one or more of the patient's strains and testing your ph

Dear Phage Phans, We'd love to hear all your VoM Portugal stories— esp. since we couldn't go! Email or tweet us, and we'll post them here in Capsid! jessica@phage.directory / @phagedirectory — also send us pics! What was your favorite tal
