While bacteriophages\u2014viruses that kill bacteria\u2014could be a solution for fighting antibiotic-resistant pathogens, various obstacles stand in the way of their clinical development. To overcome them, researchers from Inserm, Universit\u00e9 Sorbonne Paris Nord and Universit\u00e9 Paris-Cit\u00e9 at the IAME Laboratory, in close collaboration with their counterparts at Institut Pasteur and the Paris Public Hospitals Group (AP-HP), have developed a model to better predict the efficacy of phage therapy and possibly develop more robust clinical trials.
