Preprints, a Pause on Phages!
Today, Ayesha’s first primary research article appeared on Biorxiv as we hurtle towards submission. This is a huge achievement, and given it’s only a year into her PhD (technically), also evidence of some truly remarkable productivity.
If you’ve followed the lab at all, you know we spend a lot of time trying to wake (induce) phages in new and interesting ways. And you might have wondered “Can we force them to sleep?”. And… the answer is sort of, but in a way that might prove extremely clinically relevant! If you want to know why, you can either try to decipher the figure without a legend, or read the paper here.
