The International Bacteriophage Research Consortium (IBRC) and Phage Directory are co-hosting a series of Phage Bioinformatics Webinars.

The second speaker in the series will be March 2 at 9.00 pm IST / 7.30 am PST, with a talk by Katelyn McNair, a Research Scholar at the University of California, Irvine and San Diego State University, USA. Katelyn has developed the software PHANOTATE, the first gene finder specifically designed for phage genome annotation. Also, of immense interest to phage researchers, is her previous tool, PHACTS, which computationally predicts whether a phage is temperate or virulent. Register here!

The companion #phage-bioinformatics channel in the Phage Directory Slack community is now retired. Retirement notice.
