Our paper on "The impact of phage and phage resistance on microbial community dynamics" is finally out in PLOS Biology! What a journey it's been to get here, and I couldn't have done it without my fab co-authors journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
The impact of phage and phage resistance on microbial community dynamics
Phages shape the microbial world. This study uses an evolution experiment to explore how phage impact the structure and dynamics of a four-species bacterial community, finding that phage enables compe...

Bit belated as I was on parental leave(!) but really honored to receive this Leverhulme Prize.

As part of this, we'll soon be hiring a Research Technician to develop continuous culture systems for exploring eco-evo dynamics in model microbial communities. Please do get in touch if interested!
