Thrilled to share our two latest papers with the @tcostalab.bsky.social
lab! In the first, we uncover a new mechanism of satellite transfer: cf-PICIs hijack tails from diverse phages to spread across species.

Chimeric infective particles expand species boundaries in phage-inducible chromosomal island mobilization
Capsid-forming PICIs (cf-PICIs) produce their own capsids and exploit phage tails
from unrelated species to transfer their DNA across bacterial hosts. This tail piracy
enables broad dissemination and ...

How did a cholera strain outwit viruses and ignite a major epidemic? The answer could redefine outbreak control. #cholera #phagetherapy #microbialdefense
How Cholera Outsmarts Its Viral Predators
EPFL researchers have decoded how cholera bacteria used viral immunity to fuel a deadly epidemic—reshaping our understanding of outbreaks and the future of phage therapy.
