Every living thing on the planet plays host to viruses, and bacteria are no exception. Bacteriophages—or just “phages” to those in the know—are the viruses that attack bacteria. And we are in dire ...

Results from a new study are providing new insights into the therapeutic potential of bacteriophage (phage) therapy for treating diseases like cystic fibrosis (CF). Results from a new Dartmouth-led ...

Last month, researchers published the first results from the ELIMINATE clinical trial. The trial aims to test the efficacy of viruses called bacteriophages to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs).

As antibiotic resistance reaches critical levels worldwide, the 8th World Congress on Targeting Phage Therapy (June 10–11, 2025) returns to Berlin, bringing together over 75 international speakers and ...
