The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University and CreatiPhage signed an agreement on July 8, 2026, to build a phage bank and establish a research project. CreatiPhage

The ANR-supported PHAG-ONE project, led by Prof. Frédéric Laurent (Hospices Civils de Lyon), is creating a national public infrastructure for GMP-grade production of therapeutic phages. The platform has produced three GMP pilot batches of f

Dr Andrew Millard's team at the University of Leicester has analysed dung samples from nearly every animal at Dudley Zoo to build a large phage library for finding phages that best fight different bacterial infections. Droppings contain man

Daniela Rothschild-Rodriguez (University of Southampton) and colleagues published a new paper on a community-driven Klebsiella phage resource, showing KlebPhaCol comprises 53 phages spanning 5 families, including a novel gut-associated orde

Martha Clokie’s lab (U Leicester, UK) is hiring a Research Technician to assist in the development of phage reference reagents for research purposes.

The BASEL collection of E. coli phages has been expanded — 36 new ones have been added! These phages were deeply characterized genomically and phenotypically, from receptors to antiviral defense sensitivity to host range. Looking at the res

Prof Martha Clokie of the University of Leicester told The Guardian that experimental phage therapies need to be rapidly scaled up in the NHS to combat antibiotic resistance. She will direct the UK's first phage library, due to open at Leic
