How do bacteriophages shape bacterial fitness and how does it lead to the resensitiization of antimicrobials? In today's show, we are delighted to have Dr. Jeremy Barr from Monash University to talk about his research and his recent republication on Nature Microbiology "Bacteriophage-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are resensitized to antimicrobials". Maybe it's time for us to have a better understanding of the key pathogens' cellular biology and defense mechanisms to combat the challenge of AMR.
