Last talk before we pause for beverages, we have Aureljia Grigonyte, also from Dominic Sauvageau's Lab at University of Alberta. Her presentation will provide insight into how we can take into account complex variables when modeling the effect of phage cocktails.

We reuse our Qiagen columns (any kind) without compromising the yield and any carry over DNA contaminations by soaking the columns in 1M HCl overnight and washing the coumns with 5X distilled water (1 column volume each time). Saves money and plastics.

Very interesting and somewhat topical article 🙂

Phage therapy data being evaluated by World Health Organization (WHO)!

Excited to co-host Phage Therapy UK: Moving Towards Clinical Trials with Martha Clokie Melissa Haines Karen Adler this coming Thurs, Apr 22, 2pm to 6pm BST. There's still time to register! Details & speaker lineup here: buff.ly/3aiNre9

One issue that obstructs phage efficiency in vivo is poor localization of phage to the site of infection. Aurelija Grigonyte and colleagues published a new paper showing how they modified phages to increase their association with lung epithelium cells in vitro buff.ly/3tydaXv

I am pleased to share my latest publication, work from my PhD in Andrew millard group, together with Alexia Hapeshi: mdpi.com/1424-8247/14/4…

Lab meeting when you don’t have new results

Don't know if any phage-folks needs to see this, but not all agars are made equal. In my case, it's for phage work, but totally possible that other biological phenomena are impacted as well. After years of working with lambda, I noticed that it stopped plaquing and multiple 1/
