Matt PotterLovely Mastodon peeps! Do I know any virologists here?
(Or are there any who *don’t* know me yet, but would be up for chatting briefly? It’s background for a project, and I would be really grateful, and of course credit you.)
Thank you!
Nonia ParienteIt's #phage week
@PLOSBiology!
First up, Ellinor Alseth, Edze Westra and colleagues describe the impact of phage & phage resistance on microbial community dynamics

Then Jennifer Bomberger and colleagues show that #lytic phages induce #cytokine release from human respiratory epithelium in a cool cross-kingdom interaction

The impact of phage and phage resistance on microbial community dynamics
Phages shape the microbial world. This study uses an evolution experiment to explore how phage impact the structure and dynamics of a four-species bacterial community, finding that phage enables competitive release of the strongest competitor, helps maintain community diversity and prevents reinvasion of the target species.
Just came across this helpful figure on the milestones of #phage research and #phagetherapy from a recent @PLOSBiology Essay, which is a highly recommended (and easy to read) deep dive into the topic

Translating phage therapy into the clinic: Recent accomplishments but continuing challenges
Phage therapy employs viruses that specifically infect bacteria to combat bacterial infections, including those infections that do not respond to treatments using traditional antibiotics. Despite being developed 100 years ago, phage therapy is currently experiencing a resurgence in interest, as outlined in this Essay.
Victor M. CormanIn the last week, I have had so many good meetings and have seen a lot of interesting data: I have to admit that I love virology (and the good people who work with me). I also realized there are cool projects we started 10 years ago that are slowly getting done.

American Society for VirologyWe have arrived in Athens, GA for #ASV2023! Can't wait for some great virology talks and interacting with wonderful people! Starting Sunday--stop by the ASV table to win some great prizes! #LoveVirology
This is an excellent opportunity to work with an awesome mentor

Oren Kobilerviruses are part of the food chain
A cool paper finds small protists can grow on viruses as the only food source.

Jack FergusonVirus snowflake production has begun in the office. ICGS floor one will be all Christmassy with a virology twist in the next few days! #LoveVirology
Teaching starts tomorrow. Everyone loves virology! #LoveVirology
