I have a master's degree in microbiology. I defended my thesis with the title of 'Isolation and Identification of Specific Viruses Isolated from the Microbial Corroded Place in the Petroleum Industry' with the best grade. The title of one o

Big news! NIH (NIAID) has put out a request for applications for translational phage research to inform phage therapy! If you're interested in applying and are looking for particular expertise to add to your proposal, or have expertise to s

Dr. Christine Rohde I recently accepted to serve as Guest Editor for the Special Issue “Phage Diversity for Research and Application” of the journal Antibiotics. I would be very pleased if you agreed to contribute a research paper, or a com

Dr. Pallavali Roja Rani I am seeking a post-doctoral position related to Bacteriophage therapy, Antibiotic Resistance and Biofilm studies. The main objective of my Ph.D. thesis was to study the predominant bacterial isolates of septic wound

Dr. Heather Hendrickson Does anyone have a robust and reliable method that they like for auto detecting HGT in completely sequence genomes? I was playing with HGTecor last week but it seems to be broken. Help? —@DrHHNZ | Tweet thread

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

Jolien Onsea and colleagues from KU Leuven, University Hospitals Leuven, and the Queen Astrid Military Hospital in Belgium successfully used phage therapy to treat four patients with severe musculoskeletal infections. Importantly, the autho

Hans Duyvejonck and colleagues at Ghent University and the Queen Astrid Military Hospital in Belgium have published a paper evaluating the use of qPCR to quantify 5 phages within a cocktail. They compared qPCR to plaque assays, and showed t

The phage biotech company BiomX has presented in vivo data that shows successful intra-tumoural delivery of phages to Fusobacterium nucleatum, bacteria that reside inside tumours and whose presence is thought to protect tumours from chemoth

Wolbachia are bacteria that are transmitted among female arthropods, sometimes killing males of their hosts. Jessamyn Perlmutter of Vanderbilt University and colleagues have shown that a single Wolbachia prophage gene may be responsible for
