Developing and delivering phage-based technologies in the UK, an exclusive report from Innovate UK
Innovate UK Phage Innovation Network has published a report entitled: Developing and delivering phage-based technologies in the UK.
The report summarises the community’s perspective on the current capacity in different areas in the UK that could be used to support growth, the current limitations for the development and use of phage-based technologies (PBTs) in the UK, and a realistic future position for the UK to aim for.
The report concludes with six key actions that have been suggested to support the development and use of PBTs and ensure key activities to address antimicrobial resistance are undertaken in the UK, including establishing a Good Manufacturing Practice manufacturing capability for PBTs in the UK and cost-benefit analyses of the use of PBTs in different sectors.
