University of Glasgow is hiring a Research Associate, to study mechanisms and evolutionary dynamics of phage-anti-phage systems, specifically newly discovered anti-phage systems in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Newbie with questions on phages: I am an absolute newbie to phages, but, I figured here would be a good place to ask. Anyone know of any phages capable of targeting Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus? Anyone do any research with phages on th

The First Symposium of the Danish Viruses of Microbes Network will be hosted June 11-13, 2025 in Copenhagen. The meeting will showcase recent phage research and foster collaboration among Nordic scientists.

The International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) is hosting a conference, taking place on June 26-28, 2023 in Denver, Colorado, USA. The event aims to address scientific developments and challenges in probiotic

The European Bone and Joint Infection Society (EBJIS) is hosting a conference called EBJIS 2025: Advancing Bone & Joint Infection Management, taking place Sept 11-13, 2025 in Bologna, Italy.

The European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) will host a Phage Susceptibility Testing Symposium March 12 2025.

Garyk Brixi (Arc Institute and Stanford University) and colleagues have expanded on Evo 1, which was trained on prokaryotic and phage genomes, to create Evo 2, now the largest AI model in biology. It was trained on 9.3 trillion nucleotides

Benjamin Adler (University of California, Berkeley) and colleagues published CRISPRi-ART for phage functional genomics, a new broad-spectrum phage functional genomics platform. It leverages RNA-targeting dCas13d to selectively interfere wit

Melissa Cammuso (The Ottawa Hospital) and colleagues have published a preprint in medRxiv on the first use of phage therapy in Canada for life-threatening, MDR Staphylococcus epidermidis periprosthetic joint infection. This ‘n of 1 trial’ d

Los Angeles Biotech startup Parallel Health has announced an expanded protocol for personalized skin treatments using microbiome science and phage therapy. Their approach combines microbiome testing, custom phage serums, telehealth, and pre

Maria Touceda-Suarez (University of Arizona) and colleagues compiled a report on last year’s successful International Soil Virus Conference 2024, showing key developments in soil viral ecology and recommendations for future research in this

We are urgently seeking Burkholderia and Klebsiella phages for two patients in the USA. If you can help with one or both, please reach out! Ways to help at this stage: - By sending your phages for testing on the patient's strains - By rec

Project Manager at Creative BioMart in NY,USA Key Responsibilities: Initiate and maintain collaborative relationships with customers; Establish and maintain close communication with the R&D department; Responsible for designing and impleme

Cytophage Technologies announced the development of a phage-based vaccine for avian influenza (H5N1). Two candidates that use filamentous bacteriophages to display influenza antigens are entering preclinical validation, where a pilot study

CRISPRi-ART uses dCas13d to bind specific phage mRNAs and stop production of the proteins they encode. By shutting off different phage proteins, researchers can identify which are essential for infection and investigate what they do. The me

Wrapping individual phage-infected bacteria in a polymeric nanoscale coating preserves the vitality of the phages released on lysis, which otherwise have severely degraded tail proteins. In mice with bacterially induced enteritis and associ

A decade of water damage left the floors warped — and that was just the beginning. This week, Dr. Silvia Würstle shares her new lab's journey transforming an abandoned space into a cutting-edge phage lab. Setting up a new laboratory is alwa

Evergreen 2025 is happening, and for the first time in its 50-year history, we're taking it on the road! Register for the 26th Biennial Evergreen International Phage Meeting, which will be held August 3-8, 2025, at the University of Tennes

From Lars Hestbjerg Hansen via LinkedIn: Hi all. I'm looking for E. coli isolates. Hundreds of them! Even thousands! Preferably, non-clinical isolates. Please contact me if you have a large DIVERSE collection or if you know someone who has.

Ruby Lin and colleagues have created an innovative virtual reality education platform for phage therapy patients. The VR experience guides patients through the entire phage therapy journey, from lab testing to bedside treatment, aiming to r
