We had the pleasure to host @tatianadimitriu.bsky.social in @mmsb-lyon.bsky.social seminar! Great talk, super cool science ! Thank you Tatiana from coming all the way to Lyon!

✍️ We had a great time writing this Spotlight article on one of our favorite topics: how phages interact with each other! 🦠
From cooperation to competition, phage-phage interactions reveal a fascinating layer of microbial life that’s often overlooked.
A piece crafted by the talented Josie Elliott!
