The recipient of the 2025 Thomas Patterson Graduate Student Fellowship is Michael Awuah from @jrrmicro.bsky.social Lab for his work decoding the molecular basis of phage lysis inhibition. We are grateful for the generous support of this award by Drs. Tom Patterson and @superbug-slayer.bsky.social!

We welcome the visit of Dr. Michael Hust and Philip Heine @tu-braunschweig.de @tubsmedbiotech.bsky.social and appreciate their collaboration on ORFeome phage display projects!

@jasonjgill.bsky.social is talking at N=1 Collaborative Seminar TOMORROW 12:30pm EST on "Phage Therapy for Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial Infections: Past and Future" , featuring some of the CPT work. www.n1collaborative.org/post/phage-t...

Read our recent paper by @yu-zihao.bsky.social using a fluorescence reporter system that facilitates the visualization of individual copies of phage DNA throughout the phage life cycle, along with the lysis–lysogeny reporters. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

Bonus to our new followers: Our phage database prototype is now online: dbop.phagetech.org. Last updated by @jrrmicro.bsky.social, currently only holds spanin proteins.

Some of our phage protocols including phage DNA extraction, genome sequencing and assembly, and very importantly, genome closure from the assembled contig, are now available online! link.springer.com/protocol/10....

Our newest paper on engineering Burkholderia phage is out! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37943040/
