The 6th World Congress on Targeting Phage Therapy 2023 has returned to present all aspects related to phages and phage therapy on June 1-2 in Paris, France.

It will highlight the recent innovations and clinical applications of phages, validation and limitations. Paris Targeting Phage Therapy 2023 will also cover how phage will transform the medicine of tomorrow.

International phage therapy and infectious disease experts will cover the following points:

  • Phage Therapy: Recent Advances & Challenges
  • Bacteriophage Characterization & Isolation
  • Co-Evolutionary Mechanisms of Bacteria and Phages
  • Bacteriophages & Microbiota: On the Way to a Medical Revolution?
  • Bacteriophage Prophylactic & Therapeutic Applications
  • Phages, Radiotherapy & Wound Healing

 

Bacteriophages & Microbiota: On the Way to a Medical Revolution?

In collaboration with the International Society of Microbiota (ISM), a session will be dedicated to how phage will modulate the quality and quantity of microbiota. We will also discuss how to select the adequate phage to target microbiota dysbiosis in disease.
