Kevin Forsberg (Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center) and colleagues have published a new paper in eLife on a high-throughput method to find new phage-encoded anti-CRISPR proteins. The method involves expressing gene fragments from human

The Vellore Institute of Technology School of Bio Sciences and Technology and the Society for Bacteriophage Research and Therapy Ganga is hosting an International Conference on Bacteriophage Research and Antimicrobial Resistance (ICBRAMR-19

Armata Pharmaceuticals has developed a new synthetic phage candidate targeting P. aeruginosa to treat serious respiratory infections, with an emphasis on cystic fibrosis patients. The cocktail, a mixture of synthetic and natural phages, has

Fatma Abdelrahman My name is Fatma Abdelrahman and I have BSc in Microbiology from the Faculty of Science, Zagazig University, Egypt. I'm currently a research assistant at the Center of Microbiology and Phage Therapy, Zewail City of Science

Dr. Kübra Can I am seeking a research position in phage therapy or moleculer phage studies. I hold a PhD from Istanbul University (Institute of Health Sciences, Medical Microbiology Department). I have strong experience in clinical microbi

There are only 18 spots left at Phage Futures EU (Brussels Sept 25-26); if you're on the fence or haven't registered yet, best to decide and book soon! We'll be there and would love to talk phages with you! Discount code PD10 will get you 1

How do bacteria in the gut interact with phages? In a new Cell Host & Microbe paper, Paola Soto-Perez and colleagues from UCSF show that Eggerthella lenta, a prevalent bacterial member of the human gut microbiota, uses CRISPR-Cas to target

Upuli Dissanayake and colleagues at the University of Florida, along with the US phage company Intralytix, have published a paper showing an E. coli/Salmonella/Listeria-targeting phage cocktail reduces E. coli O157:H7 counts in mice without

Where's the field at with phage‐mediated control and detection of pathogens in the dairy context? Here's a nice new review of the literature by Lisa O'Sullivan and colleagues from the Cork Institute of Technology, Ireland.

If you'd like a hard copy of the special issue "Hurdles for Phage Therapy to Become A Reality", a compilation of about 30 peer-reviewed articles published by the journal Viruses over the course of 2018 and 2019, you can order one here for a

An interdisciplinary research team at Georgia Tech and the Institut Pasteur has received a 5-year, $2.5 million NIH grant to study phage-immune interactions during treatment of respiratory infections with phages. The team is led by Joshua W

We've known for a while that Vibrio cholerae makes cholera toxin because of a phage, and that the phage's receptor is Vibrio's toxin coregulated pilus (Tcp). But how does the phage actually get in? Here's a new paper by Miguel Gutierrez-Rod

The Oxford Bacteriophage Conference is happening next week (Sept 11-12 in Oxford, UK)! The scope: applying phage in medicine, food and biotechnology. Are you going to this conference? We're looking for a PhD student or postdoc to write a b
