are refugees, Amerasians, Cuban and
Haitian Entrants, asylees, Afghans and
Iraqi with Special Immigrant Visas, and
victims of a severe form of trafficking.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Background
Since their discovery approximately
one hundred years ago, bacteriophages
have been investigated as a way to treat
bacterial infections. In much of the
world, the discovery, development, and
implementation of antibiotic therapies
led to a loss of interest in bacteriophages
as a means to fight infections. However,
in recent years, interest in this form of
treatment has resurged, fueled by the
increasing prevalence of antibioticresistant bacteria.
II. Topics for Discussion at the Public
Workshop
The public workshop will bring
together government agencies,
academia, industry, and other
stakeholders involved in research,
