23-24 Nov 2021
Brussels, Belgium
Join us for the return of Phage Futures Europe, this November 2021 in Brussels, as we continue all-important discussions on translating new phage-based applications into clinical studies and beyond. Network and learn from multinational pharma, emerging biotechs, leading academics, investment representatives and regulatory bodies to discover how you can be at the forefront of the developing phage therapy market.Introducing face-to-face interactions once again, Phage Futures Europe will help you maximise networking and commercial development with key industry players such as GSK, BiomX, Contrafect and more. This year, we discuss the viability of phage derived lysines in therapy, assess the therapeutic application of natural phages vs engineered phages and explore the clinical data surrounding the magisterial and compassionate use of phages in Europe. Bacteriophages have seen continued investment and have adapted to global challenges, introducing commercial and marketable prospects for phage application. Phage Futures Europe explores the commercial applications of phages in poultry, aquaculture, biocontrol and skin microbiome, providing insights into the global design of phage products and acquiring pharmaceutical partnerships.

Dr. Julie Horvath

Head of the Genomics & Microbiology Research Lab at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences AND jointly appointed Research Associate Professor at North Carolina Central University
North Carolina Central University

Dr. Julie Horvath is a comparative evolutionary genomicist interested in understanding the evolutionary forces that have shaped primate genomes and that cause human disease. Genetic and genomic comparisons between humans and our closest relatives, the primates, are crucial for understanding our own evolution and unique characteristics. The foundation of Dr. Horvath’s research is based on species relationships, or phylogenies, which she first established for lemurs, and more recently, for all primates. These species relationships are applied to many of her research questions.
