PhageLab's CTO, Pablo Cifuentes Palma, was interviewed by the BBC's Jane Chambers on "The Coolest Science in the World" segment of the Unexpected Elements podcast about PhageLab's work with phages (starts at the 29:55 minute mark).

Tom Ireland's new book The Good Virus explores the potential of phages as the future of medicine, including their ability to target tumours with cancer drugs and fight antibiotic-resistant infections.

Mariam Taha (Ottawa Hospital Research Institute) and colleagues have published a study on the efficacy of lytic phages combined with vancomycin against S. aureus biofilm-like aggregates in synovial fluid, offering a promising strategy again

Anisha Thanki (University of Leicester, UK) and colleagues have shown that a phage cocktail delivered in chicken feed significantly reduced Salmonella colonization in experimentally-challenged broiler chickens.

Ming Hu (Qingdao University, China) and colleagues have isolated and characterized two novel, highly pH- and temperature-stable jumbo phages and found they have strong potential to eliminate Klebsiella pneumoniae in sewage water.

David Helekal (University of Warwick, UK) and colleagues have published a new model to estimate AMR fitness cost and benefit. They found that two unrelated Neisseria gonorrhoeae lineages resistant to fluoroquinolones shared similar epidemic

Naomi Haddock (Stanford University, USA) and colleagues have developed a pipeline to identify phages and their bacterial hosts in cell-free DNA from plasma samples, enabling identification of bacterial pathogens associated with sepsis.

Nature Communications case report of a 41-year-old man with Kartagener syndrome and a life-threatening chronic multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection who was treated successfully with iterative aerosolized phage treatment

This week, Jan starts to apply ideas from the previous Data series to the world of biology work and biology data. Previously in the Data series, I touched on how to think about data and how to work with both tabular data (spreadsheets) and
