Phages against dormant cells - Phage bites: Enea Maffei PhageCast

    • Life Sciences

In this episode of phage bites, we talk to Enea Maffei, a recent-graduate, Postdoctoral researcher at D-HEST in ETH Zurich.



He explains how he isolated phage Paride against dormant cells of P. aeruginosa and he explains us a bit more about the story, combination with antibiotics, how he isolated the phage, how the phage performed in animal models and much more... tune in to hear the details!


In the second part of the conversation, we also talk about his experience as a PhD student and the struggles he faced and overcame before starting his new position as a Postdoctoral researcher.
