Here’s a great example of the phage community helping each other out on Twitter — thanks to Stephen Stockdale of APC Microbiome (@SteveStockyPhD) and Simon Roux of the Joint Genome Institute (@simroux_virus) for providing answers! #### Her

Dr. Andrew Page, Norwich, UK The microbes that live inside our guts are mostly a mystery to science. We know they have an impact on our health and wellbeing that extends far beyond the gut but science currently doesn’t fully understand how

College Station, TX The Technician I, under general supervision, assists in planning research on support laboratory methods and techniques, carrying out procedures, and recording results for a series of closely-controlled experiments. Pref

Here's our favourite #phagetwitter conversation from the week: John Beaulaurier of Oxford Nanopore describes a new preprint on using single-molecule nanopore sequencing to avoid assembling phage genomes. Without assembling, they got >1400 w

The 4th annual OSU Viromics Workshop is May 8-10, 2019. The workshop kicks off with a mini-symposium, then introduces students and postdocs (and possibly early career faculty) to the informatics tools available to develop biological underst

Carol E. Zhou and colleagues report a new phage annotation pipeline called multiPhATE. Preprint and Github.

Check out this extremely informative Twitter thread by Simon Roux, which breaks down his new preprint on the pervasiveness of Inoviruses. Detect Inoviruses in your own sequence data with this tool (Github). We want to encourage more scienti
