Great seminar yesterday by Julia Frunzke @FrunzkeLab !
It was preceded by a lunch on top of @ETH, and followed by a fun dinner with members of the @MartinLoessner and @AHarms485 labs😃 Thanks for taking the long train ride from Jülich to Zurich, Julia ! 😇

@azeredo_joana @AzeredoLab Portugal as a co-leader for phage therapy in Europe - fantastic news ! 😘

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

Really great achievement ! 👏👏👏 Now Portugal is in a co-lead position for phage therapy in Europe !

[Joana Azeredo @azeredo_joana]

📢 Historic day for Portugal and phage therapy! 🇵🇹 A framework was approved, allowing magistral preparation of personalized phage products. 🙌 Grateful to Jean-Paul Pirnay, my group @AzeredoLab Portuguese patients, and doctors who signed a petition inspired by the Belgium model.

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

Amazing study - this is what we need to have a realistic idea of the power of phage therapy- and it will get even more effective using upgraded, engineered phages ! 😇

Pero como no todo es trabajo nos merecíamos una noche de cata de vinos y relax en BA! Con alumnos y miembros del LBAB

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

Thanks so much for having me; it was an honor to be part of the course !

[Mariana Piuri @PiuriMariana]

En el LBAB hoy tuvimos un invitado de lujo @MartinLoessner. Thanks for your visit! Almost porteño now.

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

Fantastic work from Léa Zinsli - and it was only the "side project" of her PhD research project ! Stay tuned for the real thing, it it all about modifying #immunogenicity of #endolysins for human therapeutic application !

[Léa Zinsli @LeaZinsli]

Happy to share part of my #PhD work!🥳 The preprint is on the interaction between two endolysin isoforms encoded by a single gene.🧬 Learn more about endolysin Ply2638A encoded by the staphylococcal phage ϕ2638A: https://t.co/Ntl4BasSYJ

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

So nice to have you here, @azeredo_joana ! Thank you for a great seminar - a perfect fit in research topics and discussions on future collaborations !

[Joana Azeredo @azeredo_joana]

Big thanks to Martin Loessner and his awesome team at ETH Zurich for the great scientific discussions and the enjoyable dinner!

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

What a great environment; happy to have had a chance to visit !

[VLC Phage Hunters @VLCphagehunters]

Lucky for the visit of Professor @MartinLoessner to the #EnBiVirLab! Engaging discussions on scientific and non-scientific topics, topped off with an enlightening talk at the University of Valencia's @MasterVirologia's program 🥰💪

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

A great team, and very motivated students !

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

It was an absolute pleasure to visit and being able to present our research 😀

[Máster Virología Universitat de València @MasterVirologia]

Cambio de ubicación!! El seminario de @MartinLoessner este viernes a las 12h30 en el Auditorio Marie Curie del @parccientificuv @UV_EG ! Entrada libre!

@AHarms485 Zwischen Ascona und Ronco ? :-)

[Martin J Loessner @MartinLoessner]

Yes, please !! Editors of the special thematic issue are Alexander Harms @AHarms485 and myself... 🤓

[Matthias Fischer @the_fischer_lab]

Do you have a manuscript on bacteriophages, archaeal viruses, or protist viruses (nearly) ready for submission? Then please consider the microLife themed issue on Viruses of Microbes: https://t.co/iW0IRKX9nY

Not sure what the title of the article suggests😅, but the science from lab members @MattDunne_1 @MeileSusanne @SamuelKilcher and @dujiemin was and is simply outstanding - convincing evidence that #phage #engineering is the future of #phagetherapy !

[Samuel Kilcher @SamuelKilcher]

Urine Good Hands! Engineered phages to detect and treat #UTIs.

🙏 to @phagedirectory for publishing an interesting behind-the-scenes article.

🙏@MattDunne_1 Jiemin Du @MeileSusanne @MartinLoessner @PhageForward @LeitnerLorenz Thomas Kessler and team!
