Critically evaluating the relative importance of phage in shaping microbial community composition
The ubiquity of bacteriophages (phages) and the major evolutionary and ecological
impacts they can have on their microbial hosts has resulted in phages often cited
as key drivers shaping microbial com...

Defence systems drive accessory genome interactions in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
As well as undergoing mutational selection, bacterial genomes are shaped by a complex evolutionary interplay among diverse accessory genome elements (AGEs). In this study we define AGEs as encompassin...

Not a bad train journey reading this absolutely brilliant book by Tom Ireland. It perfectly illustrates the history, current situation and future of phage therapy! Finding some PhD motivation which is always nice 🥼📖
Highly recommend to anyone who wants to understand phages more!

Hi @bsky.app, First post! Thought it would be best to introduce myself! I’m a PhD student at the University of Bath studying the regulatory control of bacterial defence systems. I am a BBSRC SWBio funded student working within the project remit of a larger BBSRC sLoLa grant- MultiDefence.
