Berlin, Germany – As antibiotic resistance accelerates into a global crisis, phage therapy is emerging as one of the most promising—and urgent—solutions in modern medicine. From June 10–11, 2025, the international scientific and medical community will gather in Berlin for Targeting Phage Therapy 2025, the leading global event focused on translating phage research into clinical reality.

With the theme “ From Bench to Bedside: Accelerating Clinical Applications of Phage Therapy ”, this year’s program brings together global leaders across infectious diseases, oncology, microbiome science, regulatory affairs, and biotechnology.

Strategic Aim: Clinical Implementation of Phage Therapy

This year’s edition is strategically designed to fast-track the integration of phage-based therapeutics into routine clinical practice. Key sessions will explore:

“The field has matured. The science is here. Now, our focus is clear: scale up production, secure regulatory approval, and deliver precision phage therapies to the patients who need them,” says Prof. Marvin Edeas, Chairman of the Scientific Committee.

Highlights from the 2025 Program – Major Speakers Include:

"Keynote Speech – Phage Therapy 2030: Getting from here to there"

"Bacteriophage Therapy: A Renaissance – From Military Medicine to Civilian Healthcare"
