Professor Victoria Brown-Kennerly had the opportunity to share information about Phage
Camp 2024 on Fox 2 News!
Check Back in Spring 2025 for Next Summer's Camp Details
Phage Camp was a great success, and it's a great research opportunity for high schoolers. Join us in Summer 2025 for a week of scientific research in the lab. Bacteriophages are tiny phage viruses that attack bacteria, and are useful in human medicine. A huge, invisible world of phage viruses are yet to be discovered. We explore our campus in search of these novel phages. We purify, visualize and characterize new phages as part of an ongoing research project.
