We wrap up with reflections from Martha’s career and her advice for early-stage researchers entering the phage world. Enjoy the episode! 🎧

We also talked about her work on C. difficile: why no strictly lytic phages have been found yet, how endolysins fit in, and what phages might have to do with FMT success.

We dig into why phage applications in animals, especially poultry, tend to move faster than those in humans. Professor Martha walks us through the regulatory routes for veterinary products and what that means for getting actual phage tools into the field.

New episode out! This week we speak with @MarthaClokie to talk about the Becky Mayer Centre, One Health, and what’s really happening with phage therapy in the UK. If you’ve been wondering whether any phage products, or treated patients exist in the UK, this episode has answers.

“Be honestly curious about the things that you are doing and the research that you are doing. If you understand the phage biology, you are very strong when discussing ideas and deciding what’s worth developing.” More advices for early-career researchers: https://t.co/peWvEiuOHL

@PrecisionPhage

“From my personal experience, I thought it would’ve been easier, but it’s incredibly interesting. You get to see a whole other world involving phages, beyond academic work.” Curious about what it takes to found a phage company? Listen here:

🎙️Most phage genes are still a mystery , the so-called phage dark matter. In our new episode, Matti Jalasvuori explains how @PrecisionPhage is using data and software to bring light to that darkness. Listen to it here: https://t.co/peWvEiuOHL

🎙️🚀 We are happy to share our monthly #PhageCast episode: We talk with Matti Jalasvuori, CEO & co-founder of @PrecisionPhage about using bioinformatics to make phage research practical, scalable, and ready for GMP-production. 🎧 Listen to it here →

🎙️ Did you know that there are bacterial immunity systems that resemble those found in eukaryotes? If you’d like to know more about some of these, tune in to this episode! https://t.co/i2bxR2MX0x

🎙️ Are you curious about the next big question that we need to answer in the field of bacterial immunity? Tune in to hear @rafapinilla92 answer to our question! https://t.co/i2bxR2MX0x

Finally, Rafael reflects on his personal journey into the phage field, what excites him most about current research, how challenges became valuable lessons, and his advice for PhD students and early-career researchers. Enjoy !🎧

We begin with an overview of Rafa’s research, exploring how his team studies the interplay between phages and bacterial defense systems through computational and experimental work, and how these insights link bacterial and eukaryotic immunity to biotechnological applications.

🎙️New episode out. We talked with @rafapinilla92 , Group Leader of the Bacterial Immunity Research Group at the University of Copenhagen. A deep dive into phage–bacteria interactions, CRISPR systems, and the future of bacterial immunity research.

🎙️New episode out! This month, we talked with @rafapinilla92 (Univ. of Copenhagen) about bacterial immunity: • CRISPR diversity & anti-CRISPRs • Bacteria–phage arms race • Bioinformatics, ML & HGT • Rafa’s career journey & advice for ECRs https://t.co/i2bxR2MX0x

Could optical nanotweezers and microfluidics be the key to rapid phagograms and faster phage therapy? In the latest PhageCast episode, Grégory Resch shows how physics meets biology. Listen here:

Did you know that Staphylococcus or Pseudomonas can infect heart valves causing infective endocarditis? Gregory Resch told us about their work in phage antibiotic combinations against this infection. Listen to it here: https://t.co/kscet7KwXK

Beyond the science, Greg reflects on the clinical potential of phage therapy and the challenges of bringing it closer to medical practice. He also shares valuable career insights and advice for early-stage researchers navigating the field. Enjoy! 🎧
