The University of Michigan–Flint is inviting undergraduate students to apply for an on-site research opportunity in the Lavering Laboratory focused on Streptococcus mutans, the primary cause of dental caries. Students will gain hands-on experience in microbiology and phage research, including bacterial culturing, biofilm assays, and phage techniques. This role offers valuable exposure to laboratory research, […]
The Laboratory of Antimicrobial Resistance and Drug Discovery focuses on applied phage biology, aiming to develop recombinant phages for therapeutic and diagnostic use. These engineered phages are designed to target otherwise untreatable multidrug-resistant organisms and persistent bacterial infections. Research outcomes from this programme have the potential to deliver life-saving therapies and significantly improve patients’ quality […]
This PhD research project at the University of York aims to develop a novel synthetic phage platform to selectively eliminate pathogenic S. aureus strains while preserving the healthy skin microbiome. The project integrates bioinformatics, metagenomics, synthetic biology, and microbiology, translating computational discovery into laboratory-validated antimicrobial solutions. Research Aims and Objectives: This interdisciplinary project bridges in […]
The De Buck Laboratory at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Calgary (UCVM) is inviting applications from highly motivated MSc and PhD candidates to join an ambitious, translational research program developing a next-generation, phage-based diagnostic platform for Johne’s disease. Johne’s disease is one of the most economically devastating and difficult-to-control infectious diseases affecting cattle […]
The future of phage-based biotechnologies depends on rigorous quality control and precision at every stage of production. To ensure quality and safety in bacteriophage manufacturing, Phagos is currently seeking a phage production – QC technician to join their team and support critical in-process quality control activities throughout the bacteriophage production lifecycle. This role is ideal […]
The Bioinformatics Team at Phagos is looking for a Bioinformatics Engineer to lead and scale their high-throughput structural genomics capabilities. In this role, the candidate will design and implement automated bioinformatics pipelines that analyze protein–protein and protein–ligand interactions at scale, moving beyond sequence identity to structure-based clustering and protein–protein coupling. The bioinformatician will play a […]
Phagos is seeking an experienced Regulatory Affairs Manager to define and execute regulatory strategies that enable market access for personalized bacteriophage cocktails.
