Happy #InternationalMicroorganismDay! Today is dedicated to celebrating the diversity and importance of microbes in human and planetary health. But what even counts as a microbe? Defining the term is more challenging than you might expect. asm.social/N6

A family of novel immune systems targets early infection of nucleus-forming jumbo phages biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio

Patients need safe phages, but how do you confirm a phage batch is safe? This week in C&T, Jessica Sacher, PhD (Iredell Lab/Phage Australia - Connect. Discover. Cure) shares her recent foray into learning about phage QC & working toward setting up a basic phage QC system in the lab. phage.directory/capsid/proving…

How cool is that, a prophage, upon insertion in the pneumococcal genome, modifies a small RNA to make it a better repressor of competence thereby reducing the chance that this phage gets kicked out via transformation 🤯 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Signals triggering prophage induction in the gut microbiota Mol Micro Editors MicroReview by @caroline_hnrt and Marie-Agnès Petit onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mm…

New work from our group out in Journal of Evolutionary Biology led by Dr. Kaitlyn Kortright! We used deep sampling of experimentally evolving communities of P aeruginosa and phage to find evidence for both arms race and fluctuating selection dynamics https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/je…

Exciting new preprint from Eligo Bio and David Bikard David Bikard 🇫🇷 - In situ targeted mutagenesis of gut bacteria biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How does phage virulence impact evolutionary dynamics of host resistance evolution? new paper out with @BrockhurstLab Olivia Roth Michael Sieber and many more 👇👇👇👇

In this Nature Microbiology paper, Christopher Vassallo etal used an experimental selection scheme agnostic to genomic context to identify #phage defence systems in 71 E.coli strains. They found 21 conserved systems, none of which were previously detected buff.ly/3CnjYyj

We are glad to be hosting the 3rd edition of the #WorldPhageWeek2022 webinar series on the 28 & 29th Oct!🥳🥳 We commemorate this week with discussions from excellent speakers in the #phage community. Be sure you're registered to attend: bit.ly/IBRT-WPW2022 Phage Directory

High rates of plasmid cotransformation in E. coli overturn the clonality myth and reveal colony development. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Really great talk from Nolan Tronche at Institut Pasteur, since 1887 ! Phages.fr @lcb_officiel

Bienvenue à tous les publics en cette journée de célébration de la science et de la microbiologie depuis 60 ans au @lcb_officiel

Whoo its parcel day!

Today's #shoutout to#womenInSTEM goes to Mireille Ansaldi for her PLOS Pathogens paper w/ @JulesBulssico about the role of cell filamentation in #phage-#antibiotic synergy. #phagetherapy #AMR dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…
