An obscure group of phages offers insights into elements of microbial warfare—and blueprints for new antibiotics.

Discover the potential solution to antibiotic resistance with bacteriophages, a natural alternative to combat bacterial ...

Our species, H. sapiens, arrived in Southeast Asia around 77,000 years ago. Fossil island dream Berghuis searched the artificial island for fossils between 2015 and 2018.

On top of that, early researchers didn’t realize that each phage type is highly specific for a given bacteria species, more finicky than Morris the cat. Back in the Baltimore lab, Chighladze ...

In a recent study, however, Yale scientists describe a new method for quantifying the host-attachment dynamics of several phage species—including some that target key bacterial pathogens ...

If every antibiotic has failed to help you get over an infection, phage therapy (which is not yet FDA-approved in the U.S.) may be able to do the job instead. These viruses can be life- saving.

She suggests that different phage species could target various stages of the bacterium’s lifecycle, preventing the development of resistance and ensuring that the entire bacterial population is wiped ...

A new study from scientists at New York University, Yale University, and elsewhere has demonstrated that several phage species can coexist stably on a genetically uniform strain of E. coli.

But virologists know little about how phages persist in the populations of bacterial cells they infect, hampering the development of phage therapies. Published online December 12 in the journal ...
