Phage Publication!

Ok, despite the same letter, I realize this title wasn’t alliterative… but this isn’t just a phage publication - it’s a publication in the jouranl PHAGE. You can check it out here. This one had an unusual route, with Amany taking lead to support an effort based elsewhere - making it the only case where one of my students is lead author, but I’m not corresponding!

It’s our first forray into systematic reviews for phage therapy, but one of the nice findings to come out of it for me was not just the core findings, but the pattern of publications in this field - a huge gap in the 90s and 00s that tracks with a wide-scale lack of interest (and training) in phages. I’ll definitely be using that figure!
