The latest work from our lab where we conduct the largest experimental validation of gut phages to date! This included >2000 anaerobic incubations, >900 viral DNA extractions, and >400 genomes seq. This work was led by our PhD grad Sofia Dahlman biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
NEW EPISODE OUT! 📢 In our 5th episode, we had an incredible conversation with Jeremy J Barr , a well-known Associate Professor at Monash University and the Head of Bacteriophage Biology Research Group. 🧵
Great cryoEM work by Rebbekah Menday Becky Menday from Fagan Lab at the University of Sheffield and @PerBullough groups. Such a diversity in phage structures and mechanisms of phage cell wall penetration! It's great to collaborate with you folks!
And so we finish #clostpath2023, and look ahead to #clostpath2025 in #Paris! Local organisers Peltier Johann @MorvanClaire2 and Thomas Candela. Good luck!
