The Hatoum-Aslan lab at the University of Illinois and the Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology is hiring a postdoctoral associate for a team-science project on oral microbes (Streptococcus, Porphyromonas, Fusobacterium) and their ph

Kévin Barthes explores the function of the viral microproteome in the conflict between bacteria and phages. The research identifies phage anti-defense microproteins and microproteins that activate bacterial immunity. Phages.fr

Second-year PhD student Milena Milovanović explains her thesis on how phages match their own DNA to their own proteins even when assembled outside a cell, using the PHEIGES test-tube system developed with the lab of Vincent Noireaux; she is

The 3.5-year scholarship in Robert Edwards’ programme combines phage biology, microbial genomics and computational analysis to study unknown phage-protein functions. Candidates must meet PhD admission requirements and work full-time on camp

PhageLine is a podcast that unpacks the science of bacteriophages one paper at a time, with each episode discussing a recently published study. The podcast is generated using artificial intelligence, and infectious disease scientists review
