2 scientists find virus that kills drug-resistant bacteria

Two young researchers, mentored by Prof Gyaneshwar Chaubey, have identified a bacteriophage capable of killing the dangerous hospital-linked bacterium Proteus mirabilis. This breakthrough, achieved despite personal hardship and tragedy, offers new hope against drug-resistant infections. The virus, named "Proteus phage ram_arti_1324" in memory of a researcher's mother, was published in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology.
