Increasing antimicrobial resistance in bacterial pathogens has prompted a renewed interest in alternative approaches, such as bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria). However, phage therapy, as traditionally envisioned, suffers from several technical as well as safety challenges. We are developing a platform for controlled phage therapy using engineered filamentous phages coupled with plasmonic nanorods. Studies in our group have validated the safety and efficacy of this approach in vitro and in vivo.
