Phage Therapy


The forgotten cure for the future as an alternative for antibiotics, using the natural enemies of bacteria to treat infections.











Challenge

In 2050, more people will die from resistantancy to antibiotic drugs, than from cancer. Fortunately, there is a 100 years old method that can help us in this battle. At this moment the extraordinary treatment is activily used in the Balkan area. 

Outcome

In the western medical world, the bacteriophages are not yet accepted by biomedical companies. We believe that phage therapy is a very good alternative and should be available to everyone. That is why we created the Phagecocktail, which is an open-source platform where people can find and add Phages using geolocations.
