Center for Innovative Phage Applications and Therapeutics (IPATH)

🎆Congratulations to our colleague and collaborator, Dr. Katrine Whiteson 🙌 at UC Irvine! The more funding for #phageresearch the better - we love seeing our collaborators rewarded for their great work! #superbugsolution #phagetherapy #bacteriophage #phage #AMR #ARB #MDRO CC: University of California | Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute |

Could it be real? 🌊Could ocean phages be turning over gigatons of carbon per year? We need to know more, they’re not yet included in global #climate models....Matthew Sullivan and Virginia Rich, your research is so cool - tell us more! #superbugsolution #phage #perfectpredator #VIPviruses #carbonmetabolism #carboncapture #phageresearch #oceanbuffer #carbonsink #climatechange #microbiome CC: Jack Gilbert | The Ohio State University | Fondation Tara Océan | National Science Foundation (NSF) | Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation | U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) | The Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment

We are so stoked to have the support of Emily's Entourage and thrilled to be featured in this update on their approach to advancing #innovative research and recently funded projects (like ours! 🤓🔬🙌) that are dedicated to helping the #cysticfibrosis community. #superbugsolution #phage #phagetherapy #perfectpredator #bacteriophage #healthcareinnovation #CF

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention #AntibioticResistance Threats Report provides a crucial update on the growing burden of #antimicrobialresistance (#AMR) in the U.S. - revealing alarming increases in resistant infections and associated deaths, and underscoring the urgent need for robust prevention and treatment strategies. It serves as a #calltoaction for #healthcare professionals, #policymakers, and the public to intensify efforts against this escalating #publichealththreat.

We are a fan of these #Stories_of_AMR, which offer insight into real world experiences and insight from those affected by #antimicrobialresistance and emphasize the need for innovation and collaboration across fields and geographies, when it comes to addressing this issue. 🌍 🌎 🌏 #superbugs #MDRO #AntimicrobialStewardship #antibioticresistance #ABR

📣 Don't miss it! IPATH physician Dr. Saima Aslam will join Dr. Greg German, Krupa Parmar, and Dr. Patricia Simner on the discussion panel "#PhageTherapy and Implications for the Clinical #Microbiology Laboratory" 🔬 - next Tuesday, August 13th at 11am PT / 12pm CT / 2pm ET, hosted by American Society for Microbiology and moderated by Belkys C. Sanchez, PhD. Presentations by Filipe Cerqueira, Ph.D. and Alexis Jaramillo Cartagena, PhD. Topics to be discussed include; - Discuss the role of phage therapy in the treatment of #AMR infections. - Identify clinical situations in which phage therapy might be considered. - Describe susceptibility testing methods for clinical #phage. - Discuss the implications of increasing the utilization of phage therapy for the #clinicalmicrobiology laboratory.
