Maryn McKenna and Lina Zeldovich held a live Q&A about phage therapy at Emory University. Zeldovich, a Soviet-born scientist-turned-author, discusses her new book "The Living Medicine," which explores the revival of phage therapy as a poten

Did you know the CDC and FDA have an Antimicrobial Resistance (AR) Isolate Bank? Researchers can order microbial isolates for free, collected from CDC's surveillance and outbreak activities. These isolates are combined into panels for testi

The second UN General Assembly High-Level Meeting on Antimicrobial Resistance  convened yesterday to address the urgent global health crisis of AMR and its implications for public health, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.

A hydrogel loaded with a phage cocktail and vancomycin gave a 99.72% reduction in MRSA biofilm in vitro and maintained activity for eight days. In vivo, the co-delivery hydrogel with systemic antibiotic reduced bacterial load by 0.99 log10

Célia Souque (Harvard Medical School) and colleagues published a new paper reviewing evolutionary mechanisms driving antibiotic resistance at different scales.

The Phage Hunters Training and Research Program in Nairobi has been hosting a ‘Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and Phage Therapy series’ on LinkedIn Live — recordings are available! Recently they had a panel on AMR and phage therapy, and ano

Elena Gómez-Sanz (University of Bern, Switzerland) is hiring: - a postdoc in phages and AMR to develop strategies to visualize transduction dynamics - a PhD student to characterize a unique staphylococcal phage-host library to assess and me

Wei Liu and (Tsinghua University) and colleagues have shown that phage communities contribute to antibiotic resistance genes in sludge plants.

Want a quick visual on global prevalence of Pseudomonas resistance to fluroquinolones? Or E. coli resistance to colistins? ResistanceMap is a new interactive visualization tool for looking at AMR around the world, created by One Health Trus

The Persat lab at EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland is hiring a postdoc to develop high-throughput human lung organoid models to study AMR in P. aeruginosa, with a focus on phage therapy development and anti-infective drug discovery.

A Nature Microbiology study from the Universities of Würzburg and Tübingen shows that in Vibrio cholerae the CBASS anti-phage signalling system increases sensitivity to antifolate antibiotics up to tenfold and enables bacterial lysis by the

A Nature Communications study (open access) describes Paride, a newly isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage that can replicate directly in, and lyse, deep-dormant host cells, whereas other phages tested suspended replication until the host

The recombinant endolysin LysAB1245, from phage T1245, showed broad activity against all clinical multidrug-resistant A. baumannii isolates tested across capsular types KL2, 3, 6, 10, 47, 49 and 52, with a reduction of more than 3 log in vi
