Jagdev Singh and colleagues published a clinical trial announcement that will involve a single-arm, open-labelled study investigating the safety and tolerability of intrabronchial and nebulized phage treatment in children with cystic fibros

Denish Piya and colleagues published a preprint on genome-wide CRISPRi knockdown to map essential elements across whole phage-host genome combinations at once. Their results recapitulate the essential genes determined from decades of analys

David Wishart and colleagues have introduced PHASTEST (PHAge Search Tool with Enhanced Sequence Translation) as a faster and more accurate web server for annotating prophage sequences and bacterial genomes. In standardized tests, PHASTEST o

A recent preprint by Michele Mutti and colleagues reveals that phage activity against Staphylococcus aureus is severely impaired in plasma and synovial fluid. Coagulation factors binding to the bacteria form clots that protect them from pha

Copenhagen-based SNIPR Biome, a CARB-X portfolio company, has developed SNIPR001, a cocktail of CRISPR-armed phages designed to target E. coli. A recent release by Robin Berghaus of CARB-X highlights the potential of SNIPR001 to prevent blo
