Projects

PEONS: Prediction of Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis

Sequenced metagenomes of clinical maternal and child samples will be analysed and used to predict whether the infants will develop a sepsis or not. A descriptive longitudinal analysis of the maternal sample is intended to show how antibiosis changes the composition of the vaginal metagenome The What the Phage workflow will be used to identify the Phageome in the clinical metagenome data.

De-Phage: De-colonisation via Phages

A pilot study to estimate the risk of horizontal gene transfer by therapeutic phages from CPE donor strains (containing the most frequent carbapenemases VIM and KPC) to recipient strains. The results may have a high impact on the phage research in this area in regard to whether phages as principle strategy for intestinal CPE de-colonization will be further investigated or abandoned.
