 On this episode, we introduce our listeners to the ins-and-outs of what is a phage—viruses that attack bacteria. We then take a journey through time to meet the fathers of phage research, Frederick Twort, Felix d'Herelle, and Georgyi Eliava. From trench warfare to the Cold War, from backyard science to pharmaceutical giants, we take a look at the ebbs and flows of phage research, and the beginnings of phage therapies, both from the scientific and political view points.
