Time: 1:00 pm
day: Pre-Conference Day Track B PM

Details:

  • Creating supercharged synthetic phages as highly effective weapons in the fight against multidrug-resistant bacterial infections
  • Benefits of engineering natural phages to broaden their host range, minimize resistance and improve efficacy
  • Updates from the world’s first clinical trial of orally dosing SNIPR001; a cocktail of CRISPR-armed phages
  • How to identify optimal phage candidates for downstream engineering?
