Ever wondered what happens if 💊antibiotics are not effective anymore?
In this online article I summarize the efforts in the field using 🦁🦠predatory bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus as ‘living antibiotic’: tinyurl.com/4dmt9dps

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
We are happy to share the presentation about the "Partner Search Tool" from the recent #EUPOHAMR webinar: 2026 Joint Transnational Call, "Treatments and adherence to treatment protocols".

We are recruiting a tenure track professor in the broader area of molecular biology @zmbh.uni-heidelberg.de at Heidelberg University! www.nature.com/naturecareer... Please share and apply!
🚨Preprint alert - this is a big one! We transfer the revolutionary power of TnSeq to bacteriophages.
Our HIDEN-SEQ links the "dark matter" genes of your favorite phage to any selectable phenotype, guiding the path from fun observations to molecular mechanisms.

What’s holding back clinical use of phage therapy in the UK?
Our workshop last year brought together international experts, biotech and regulators to find out
Meeting Report out now in Nature Microbiology with our take on the challenges and opportunities facing the UK phage therapy sector
Application deadline for this postdoc position in my group closing next week 🦠 thank you all who have shared so far!
Simona Huwiler discusses the potential of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, a predatory bacterium, to address the growing concern of AMR.
