Happy to share our new paper in Nature Communications!
We show that phages evolved in P. aeruginosa biofilms have a better anti-biofilm activity, by improving LPS recognition.

3/ 💊🦠 Decades ago, antibiotics were essential in fighting infections, but year after year, bacteria are becoming ➕ resistant. How can we tackle this challenge?
@azeredo_joana explores how viruses might be the key.👇

📢 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.
Congratulations @IvoneMMartins1 very well deserved the 5th Zendal Award in the Human Health category for the project HERCULES – Bacteriophages against Alzheimer’s disease. 👏 🎉#ZendalAwards

Congratulations to @PhageCast for one year of disseminating phage knowledge. Cheers to the three bright PhD students behind this initiative!
Congratulations for the so well succeeded UBA phage course. It was a great pleasure being part of it and thank you so much for your warm welcoming. I’m already missing the beautiful BA.
Fin del @CursoFagosUBA edición 2024. Gracias a los maravillosos participantes por sus ansias de aprender y calidez! Espero se lleven en su ❤️ un poquito del amor que siento por los fagos. Great thanks to @NMITaylorLab, @azeredo_joana and @MartinLoessner for your amazing talks!
Happy to announce the release of the 2nd edition of our book, 'Bacteriophage Therapy: From Lab to Clinical Practice,' edited by Joana Azeredo and Sanna Sillankora. Our sincere gratitude goes out to all the authors for their invaluable contributions to this comprehensive edition.
After an afternoon of joyful Xmas games, my team is ready for a well-deserved holiday break! Wishing everyone a very happy Christmas! 🎄🌟
Big thanks to Martin Loessner and his awesome team at ETH Zurich for the great scientific discussions and the enjoyable dinner!
Not to be missed the interview to @PaulPirnay in @PhageCast.
🎙️New episode out!
This episode is the first of two-part interview with @PaulPirnay , Senior Scientist and Head of LabMCT at Queen Astrid Military Hospital. Dive into the world of phage therapy in Belgium – how it started, current practices, and future perspectives.

Our group is very well represented at #EvergreenPhage2023. @ferreira_rute2 and @rp_monteiro19 have their posters on H. pylori phages and P. aeruginosa prophages, respectively. If you 're there, go and meet them 👍
