Today we are interviewing Graham Hatfull: Graham Hatfull is Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh, USA. He is well-known in the phage field for his work in mycobacteriophages.
Why are mycobacteriophages important? Why do we need those phages? You will learn about phage therapy efforts against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) and M. abscessus, how endolysins work against these pathogens… and much more.
Graham also told us about the Science Education Alliance Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science (SEA-PHAGES) program, which covers almost 150 participating institutions and over 5,000 student researchers each year: curious about what it takes to start it?
In the last part of the episode, you can hear some advice from him for people entering on the phage field.
Enjoy the episode!
