Discovery Notes | this phage was found in soil that was very moist and rich. The soil was under some trees (shaded). The weather outside was cloudy and 73 degrees. The coordinates were latitude= 40.4418171, and longitude=-79.9548596. |
Naming Notes | This phage came from a sidewalk by Posvar Hall (University of Pittsburgh). I decided to name this phage "Future1" because I see something as small as this phage sample as an answer to a problem. This phage could be the answer to cancer, or an answer to some other disease. It could be the future of becoming more medically advanced. |
