PhageLine #19: Targeted Discovery by Co-Culture (Phage DisCo)
Update: 2025-05-31
Description
Hello and welcome to PhageLine - your line to everything phage.
This week, we will discuss a method for the targeted discovery of bacteriophages by co-culture, called Phage DisCo, which was recently published in mSystems by Eleanor Rand and her colleagues at Harvard University. Usually, I would say "have fun" here; however, there is also a dark side to this episode: all five federal grants that supported different parts of this work were part of the mass termination of Harvard grants three weeks ago, as confirmed by principal investigator Michael Baym.
This episode was generated using artificial intelligence. An infectious disease researcher reviewed the contents of the episode.
