Antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections represent a rapidly growing public health crisis, killing at least 1.27 million people globally each year. Bacteriophages (phages), viruses that infect bacteria, are entering the spotlight as an alternative to antibiotics. Phages can directly treat bacterial infections and some can even force bacteria to evolve loss of their antibiotic resistance. Come learn about the power of phages and cutting-edge research being conducted right now at Yale's Center for Phage Biology and Therapy!
