Phage DisCo! Our targeted phage discovery method in press today: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
Perfectly timed with our four summer undergrad's first successful phage hunt... disco lights in the lab to mark the occasion 🕺

We made a small modification to the classic plaque assay, by integrating multiple fluorescent strains into the lawn. This allows immediate read-out of phage phenotypes, skipping the laborious downstream screening
(and a well deserved glow-up for the work horse of virology for almost 100 years!) 8/
