We are looking for a highly motivated and dynamic researcher for a 2 year position, to commence August 1, 2019. The position is related to role of bacteriophages in the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes in Staphylococcus and the exten

Jee-Hwan Oh and colleagues published a paper on how certain dietary sugars promote Lactobacillus phage production in the mouse gut.

Bacteria sometimes acquire "incorrect" CRISPR spacers in response to phage infection. Until now, no one knew whether these incorrect ("slipped") spacers had a purpose. Simon A. Jackson, Peter Fineran and co. have just shown that slipped spa

Anushila Chatterjee and colleagues published a new preprint showing that phage resistance in enterococci leads to reduced antibiotic resistance and reduced mouse gut colonization.

Sooyeon Song and colleagues have published a new paper showing that E. coli employs both active (lytic and temperate) and inactive phages (a cryptic prophage) to discriminate between nearby strains and control cell-cell contact according to

Christian Møller-Olsen et al. just published an article in Scientific Reports showing that an E. coli phage can kill its host intracellularly, and that it kills more efficiently when human bladder epithelial cells are present. This corrobor

Dr. Jeremy Barr | The Barr Lab The Barr Lab research group is studying bacteriophages within the context of their bacterial and mammalian hosts. We are offering an excellent opportunity to engage in an exciting post-doc position that combin

A 2012 VCU research report describes how SaPIs package their own DNA while interfering with helper phages. The team identified specific inhibition of helper-phage DNA packaging as a second mechanism, alongside capsid-size changes. VCU News

Wageningen University & Research advertised a postdoc studying phage evolution in 2D and 3D habitats, where hitchhiking on nematodes and insects helps phages overcome spatial barriers. The role combined laboratory and greenhouse experiments

Participants will get to know the concepts and associated techniques of bacteriophage isolation and characterization. Another important component is to share experiences in pedagogy and reagent/supply acquisition and preparation that will h
