This project aims to characterize the SPFM10 jumbo phage and understand its structural and molecular mechanisms of bacterial recognition, binding, and infection. These insights will be essential for developing a phage therapy strategy to combat foodborne NTS(Non-typhoidal Salmonella) infections, particularly those involving MDR strains. Foodborne infections caused by Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) due to consumption of contaminated meat and […]
Campylobacter jejuni is a major foodborne pathogen responsible for gastroenteritis every year. The major source of infections by this bacterial pathogen is contaminated poultry products. C. jejuni is a commensal of birds and can spread rapidly within poultry flocks. Bacteriophage treatments have been mooted as one potential approach but are usually disregarded due to bacterial resistance to infection. […]
This project aims to develop a minimal phage genome that can be used for biotech applications and to elucidate the function of phage genes. We will also develop a colorimetric-based selection technique for creating phage mutants. We will engineer phages that target different bacterial hosts to display different fluorescent proteins on the capsids. Finally, we […]
The lab’s research focuses on discovering new functions encoded among gut anaerobic bacteria and bacteriophages using high-throughput functional genomics. We are also interested in bacteria-phage interactions and how phages alter bacterial physiology and microbial composition dynamics. The overall goal is to advance our understanding of the gut microbiota at the molecular level. Research projects leverage […]

Opportunity to work as a professor with an excellent track record in marine pelagic ecology and with a focus on marine planktonic organisms, a PhD in biology or in another topic within the life sciences, and a strong commitment to the research activities in the Research Division 3 Marine Ecology. The Professorship is located at […]
This project aims to isolate and characterize phages targeting MDR Acinetobacter spp. from Malaysian wastewater. The student will perform advanced phage purification and characterization at the Monash Phage Foundry (MUA). Techniques include phage enrichment and genome sequencing in collaboration with the national wastewater agency and Monash University Malaysia Genomics Platform (MUM). Research on bacteriophages against […]
This research aims to create phage treatments that are highly effective in complex, infection-like environments while minimizing immunogenicity, offering new hope for patients with chronic infections. Looking for a candidate to work on selection and optimization of phage therapy for treating chronic infections. The work focuses on developing targeted phage cocktails against persistent pathogens such […]
Access training and mentoring from a team of scientists and engineers with expertise in bacterial genetics, phage biology, microbiome studies, computational biology, and machine learning. This position at Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology will offer excellent opportunities for interdisciplinary training and a vibrant work environment. study oral microbes, including Streptococcus, Porphyromonas, and Fusobacterium species, and their viruses […]
Departments of Biology and Chemistry & Biochemistry at Baylor University are currently open for multiple Postdoctoral Research Associates with a focus on Phage Biology and Microbial Cell Sorting. For Phenotype-driven studies of the gut and oral microbiome, the research group has a program in the synthesis and application of chemical probes in complex biological systems, […]
