José R Penadés (Imperial College London) and colleagues have shown that a new AI tool, ‘AI co-scientist’ (built by Google), was able to accurately predict their (unpublished) experimental findings about how phage-inducible chromosomal islan

Proteon Pharmaceuticals has announced the registration of its Salmonella phage-based chicken feed product, BAFASAL PRO, in Brazil! This is Proteon’s third product approval in Brazil, and second in the last year!

The Novo Nordisk Foundation, Wellcome, and Gates Foundation have released a call for proposals on innovative approaches to discover broad-spectrum antibiotics against Gram-negative pathogens, focusing on Klebsiella spp. Apply by March 25, 2

Mikael Skurnik (University of Helsinki) and colleagues published a new in-depth review on phage therapy methods, showing comprehensive protocols for isolating, characterizing, and applying phages in therapeutic settings against bacterial in

Cheng Lu (South China University of Technology) and colleagues published a new paper on synthesizing headful packaging phages, showing functional phages can be synthesized using yeast transformation-associated recombination with only a unit

“Getting our foot through the door to any VC... As soon as they hear we're infectious disease, their eyes kind of get big. And then they hear we're antibacterial, their eyes get bigger. And then they hear we're not small molecule, it's like

The Israeli Phage Therapy Center named the newly discovered phage KpRaz1 in memory of Raz Abulafia. The article says the phage could have therapeutic value if it proves effective against bacterial infections. Hebrew University

WHO/Europe fact sheet explaining that therapeutic phages are lytic and highly specific to their bacterial hosts and can be used alone or alongside antibiotics, but are not approved medicines in most countries and are mainly used on compassi

The Evergreen Phage Meeting is a special conference — many of us can trace our phage journeys back to Evergreen. And when we wrapped up last year, we weren't even sure if we'd ever do it again. But when there's a will, there's a way. Evergr
