Great news @LocusBio who published prelim data from their Phase 2 #clinicaltrial of #CRISPR-enhanced #phage to treat chronic #UTIs in adult women @TheLancetInfDis. Phase 3 ELIMINATE #trial starts soon & involves @IPATH. Can't wait! #phagetherapy #AMR

ePhective (San Francisco) is a newly founded #phagetherapy company started by @joeBondyDenomy (@UCSF) & Zemer Gitai (@Princeton). They are currently looking for:
2 #Phage Scientists to lead projects in phage discovery, characterization, & engineering

At #VoM2024 @Profvrr (chaired by @jrrmicro) will be interviewing @RobLavigne1 & Prof. Krystyna Dabrowska for a live recording of 'This Week in Virology' #TWiV!
Head over to microbe.tv/ to catch up on some previous #TWiV episodes 🎙️

So jazzed to have #Japan's TV network @NHK feature #phagetherapy on an episode of #ScienceZero! Our #memoir, #ThePerfectPredator is available in #Japanese, translated by another #scientist, @SatomiTsuboko

I just read an advanced copy of THE LIVING MEDICINE @LinaZeldovich. If you thought you knew everything abt #phagetherapy, you were wrong! Pre-order yours now! #phage #AMR #superbugs

Pseudomonas partners with Pf phage to build biofilms and promote antibiotic tolerance. Here, we explore how. Congrats to Kevin Chen, @cai_pam @PRSecor, @heilshornlab @ASpakowitz @ebburgenerMD and a terrific team science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

🌊 If you thought we were done sharing photos of #bioluminescence ... think again.
🏄♂️ @UCSanDiego photographer @ErikJep captured these stunning shots of the UC San Diego Surf Team and Surf Club members gearing up for a bioluminescent surf session last night.

#PhageTherapy offers hope for so many #CF patients fighting #superbug infections. Mallory Smith's #memoir for #youngadults, DIARY OF A DYING GIRL @randomhouse tells us why. #AMR #cysticfibrosis

Thrilled that this #lawsuit against @EPA that I signed onto WON. The #EPA was forced to reinstate its ban on the use of medically important #antibiotics on #citrus trees. My family's #superbug story was a testimonial to help make the case.
BOOM.

Viruses known as “jumbo” phages are seen as new tools against deadly bacterial infections. But scientists must first decipher the extraordinary makeup of these mysterious viruses. Researchers in @PNASNews describe key functions of jumbo phage development. go.ucsd.edu/3Qo5h4z

It was lovely last night to meet members of the Select Committee of Science and Technology who drove the UK Bacteriophage inquiry + to meet the other experts informing our committee and others. Great to have top level support for much needed phage technologies. Pic from en route!

Very excited to announce that the work lead by @ZengLanying and Junjie Zhang is now online in Science!! The paper details the molecular mechanism of type IV pili detachment by ssRNA phage PP7, which may be common among other ssRNA phages science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
