This study investigates prophage induction in human gut metagenomes in response to ciprofloxacin, finding species-specific increases in prophage-to-bacterial host read depth ratios.

This paper introduces a colorimetric assay to detect virulent vibriophages in fecal and environmental samples, finding it sensitive and scalable for epidemiological studies.

This study sequenced V. cholerae genomes from Bangladesh in 2018, revealing geographic variation in lineage dominance and pangenome diversity across regions.

The paper develops a cholera RDT that detects both Vibrio cholerae and the bacteriophage ICP1, demonstrating its ability to detect ICP1 as a proxy for pathogen presence.
