New preprint: We mapped global receptor-binding protein compatibility across 1,270 Klebsiella and Acinetobacter phages — identifying conserved adapter domains that define host-range modules for programmable phage engineering

Turns out phages go beyond binding to mucus.
Many latch onto epithelial cells, get internalized, and traffic to the ER using Ig-like adhesins encoded by some of the most abundant gut phages.
Our new preprint is out: doi.org/10.64898/2026.…

Excited for #ESCMIDGlobal kicking off this week—hope to see you in Vienna! 🇦🇹
Our lab is presenting two posters:
Sunday: P2395 | Session 05a
Monday: P1835 | Session 03g
Come say hi and chat phages & resistance!

Excited to share a new collaboration with the @Csaba_Pal_Lab, out now in @NatureMicrobiol!
The study highlights how ESKAPE pathogens adapt to emerging antibiotics:

📢 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.

Did you know that today, October 22nd, is World Phage Day?
This day also marks the beginning of World Phage Week (October 22nd-28th), dedicated to raising awareness about the life-saving potential of #bacteriophages.

Magistral phage preparation according to the Belgium model of phage therapy is being discussed by the Portuguese government. @azeredo_joana and @DPP_Pires were at the parliament to present the concept as a result of a petition initiated by two patients who received phage therapy.

🌐 Bridging fields: #Pathogengenomicsurveillance has revolutionized epidemiology and vaccine development, but its potential in phage therapy remains untapped. Our study highlights the need to bring these fields together. 9/10
English
🏥 Clinical impact: By enabling hospitals to prepare in advance, we can save lives, reduce the spread of superbugs, and make phage therapy a routine part of healthcare. 8/10
English
🔄 From personalized to scalable: Traditionally, phage therapy is personalized and time-consuming. Our map identifies locations where patients need the same phages, scaling up phage therapy and allowing clinical trials. 7/10
English
⏳ Timing is everything: Superbug variants spread slowly, remaining prevalent for about 6 years in a region, allowing us to prepare region-specific phage treatments in advance. 6/10
English
💡 Key discovery: Despite hundreds of bacterial variants, only a few strains dominate in each region. This means we can prepare region-specific phage treatments that could tackle up to 80% of local infections. 5/10
