New PHAGE issue out!🌟 -Why phage appeal is rising as antibiotic alternative -Mining phages for antimicrobial peptides -MOI-based dosing for S. epidermidis -Phages & non-classic antibiotic -Salmonella phages in cattle -Lytic phages on MDR P. aeruginosa https://t.co/25cvo72kMf

🚨 🧬 Updated preprint on the completed BASEL collection - what's new? Some fun with bacterial immunity and a new P22 relative infecting E. coli K-12. A thread 🧵

Exciting update and developments for and within our @Leicester_Phage which will become the Becky Mayer Centre for Phage Research - we will be recruiting new staff early next year so please watch this space!

Join us in Paris on April 8th-10th for the 2025 Symposium on the Immune System of Bacteria 🥖🍷🦠🧬. Excited to welcome these amazing speakers at @institutpasteur . Registration will open beginning of November. Abstract deadline February 28. Stay tuned.

📢 Historic day for Portugal and phage therapy! 🇵🇹 A framework was approved, allowing magistral preparation of personalized phage products. 🙌 Grateful to Jean-Paul Pirnay, my group @AzeredoLab Portuguese patients, and doctors who signed a petition inspired by the Belgium model.

Get ready to dance, our paper – Phage DisCo: targeted discovery of bacteriophages by co-culture – has been pre-printed! 🪩 This has been a really fun project to work on with @implosian, @baym, @nquinoneso, Kesther and Carmen! https://t.co/k04NdEUvss 1/

PhD projects at University of Leicester Including three phage projects .... With @MarthaClokie , and me. Including an iCASE project with Dr Abhinav Koyamangalath Vadakkepat , using cryoEM https://t.co/Lu9PwDgx36

Why @Leicester_Phage - alongside our phage colleagues globally, are doing the work we do articulated in 30 seconds!

This week is world #AMR awareness week. #Phages are one of the most promising therapeutic agents in combatting AMR and a rapidly rising field of research. Read or re-read our special issue on phage research from an interdisciplinary perspective! 👇 https://t.co/oMZZwlG8P5

Research Technician at @Leicester_Phage Advert closes 21 Nov 2024 Come work with me and @MarthaClokie on developing phage standards. In collaboration with MHRA https://t.co/iWokGKcQu4

PhD studentship with @milja001 and me at @Leicester_Phage . Part of larger CF Trust Hub led by @JoJofoth Selection of bacteriophages for therapeutic use in cystic fibrosis-associated Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections at University of Leicester

When experiments don’t work... build a phage costume! 🎃 Happy PHAGEOWEEN!!! 👻🧬#Teamwork

The CPT's Phage Naming Service is now available at https://t.co/KDav1RkJbu! This service lets you quickly check if a phage name already exists in either NCBI or PhagesDB.

🌍🦠 Next week is World Phage Week 2024! 🗓️ Join October 25-26 for a webinar series by the Ibadan Bacteriophage Research Team! @IbadanPhageTeam Theme: Rethinking Antimicrobial Resistance: Bacteriophage Therapy and the One Health Paradigm

My lab is up and running and just needs enthusiastic phage biologists to populate it! Contact me or apply in the link if you are interested in a postdoc exploring plasmid-dependent phage biology in beautiful (and super affordable!) upstate New York🍎 https://t.co/nYWsBgNih4 1/3

New episode out! We talked with @EvelienAdri group leader at the Quadram Institute. What are the must-have bioinformatics skills every phage researcher should have? And what tools can help you get there? If you want to know just listen to this episode. https://t.co/6YGoBUhKpK
