Podovirus Podcast interview with Dr. Jesus Fernandez on Eligo Bioscience's microbiome editing technology using phages!

Why aren't phages routinely used in the world yet? It constantly feels that they're not living up to their potential, and I want to understand why.

I’m super excited to share our new podcast, Podovirus. This is a new experiment. I wanted a (better?) excuse to have in-depth conversations with some of my favorite phage people, and ask them about what they’re doing, what work still needs to be done, why certain things are hard, etc.

Come join the fun!

🎙️ Most recent episode: Jesus Fernandez-Rodriguez, PhD, VP of Technology at Eligo Bioscience, shares how their team is editing live microbes in the mouse gut with engineered phages!

🩺 Up next: Joe Campbell joined as a co-host for an interview with Dr. Gina Suh, Mayo Clinic ID physician, about what makes the best phage therapy patients, getting phage therapy up and running at her institution, and her current hopes and challenges.

🍅 On deck: Joe and I interviewed Alexander (Sandro) Sulakvelidze, CEO of Intralytix, about his 26-year (!) journey toward getting phage cocktails on the market in the food industry, the 3 clinical trials they've got running, and the efficacy data (hopefully) around the corner!
