Phages 2023

Welcome to the Oxford Bacteriophage Conference – Phages 2023

Before making your booking for in-person attendance, please check for the availability of places by emailing PhageOxford@gmail.com! Registration for virtual attendance will remain open until 04th September.

Confirmed speakers

We warmly invite you to attend our 13th annual Oxford bacteriophage conference – the longest running phage conferences series in Europe, and the second longest running phage conference globally – which will be held on 04-05 September 2023 as a ‘virtual/in-person’ hybrid event at St Edmund Hall, Oxford, UK. With the rapidly growing interest in bacteriophage therapy to tackle antimicrobial resistance across the globe, we believe this conference will provide an excellent platform for the bacteriophage community to share new ideas, network with colleagues and develop new collaborations.

NB: We have no association with ops@travellerpoint.org, or any other travel/accommodation agency, so any emails from them are unsolicited.
