As antibiotics start to fail, are we ready to enter the age of phage?

Are you excited about exploring the biology behind phages infecting dormant bacteria? Join forces to uncover fundamental biology with great potential for clinical impact. We offer a fully funded PhD p...

Comprehensive assessment of the host range of phages is a prerequisite for their safe and effective use in multiple applications but is rarely undertaken. This Review outlines the molecular and ecolog...

gReLU advances deep-learning-based modeling and analysis of DNA sequences with comprehensive toolsets and versatile applications.

It’s been a hot minute since last update on this lab note page. Things since last write up had been quite hectic, both in good and bad sense. I hopped on a train across continental US to atte…

Many bacteria, including the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are chronically infected by viruses that can reproduce without killing the cell. These viruses, called filamentous phages, t...
