Yesterday Joana Azeredo gave a talk about implications and applications of phage/biofilm interactions at Bacteria vs Phage: the main event



New episode out! 🎙️ In our conversation with Paul Turner Lab , Professor at Yale University, we covered his research on phage evolution and how he has applied his findings to treat Cystic fibrosis patients against MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa with phage therapy.




New PhageBites is out!🎙️ We interview Steven De Soir , a postdoctoral researcher at UCLouvain & LabMCT. We cover his recent article about phages and antibiotics synergism against Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms in the context of orthopaedic infections. open.spotify.com/episode/6gWVZC…


Magistral phage preparation according to the Belgium model of phage therapy is being discussed by the Portuguese government. Joana Azeredo and Diana Priscila Pires were at the parliament to present the concept as a result of a petition initiated by two patients who received phage therapy.
