In this way, scientists could retain only positive clones and immediately use their selected phage to generate more phages. This made screening higher throughput, as researchers could screen thousands ...

If you're interested in participating in the phage research course, we encourage you to apply! Please also ask a teacher to fill out our easy recommendation form (no formal letter of recommendation ...

Their potential as antibacterial agents was appreciated almost immediately, with the first 'phage therapy' trials predating Fleming's discovery of penicillin by approximately a decade. In this ...

Scientists have sought to learn how the single-cell organisms survive phage infection in a bid to further understand human immunity and develop ways to combat diseases. Now, Johns Hopkins Medicine ...

The Phage Genomics Lab courses ,sponsored by the HHMI Science Education Alliance, offers introductory biology students an authentic research experience. Students isolate novel bacteriophage from the ...

Because phages exert pressure on the bacteria they infect and some phage genomes encode virulence factors and toxins, a role for specific phages or communities of phages in human health seems ...
