Dear All,I wrote in a 12 Dec 2024 newsletter ("Mirror Bacteria: An AMR threat of unprecedented magnitude") about the really disturbing possible threat from creation of "mirror” bacteria in which all chiral elements of the bacterium are replaced by their enantiomeric counterparts. Such bacteria are predicted to be able to evade many (if not most) current control mechanisms (e.g., innate immunity in plants and animals) and thus pose a major threat to all ecosystems.If you missed the newsletter (or if those two sentences do not make sense to you), please read the newsletter, watch the symposium video discussed below, or both ... this is a really big idea!As a follow-up, the Mirror Biology Dialogues Fund (MBDF) hosted the 12-13 June 2025 Paris Conference on Risks from Mirror Life at the Institute Pasteur. During the conference, concrete steps for proactively addressing this threat were discussed by 100 interdisciplinary experts from France, the U.S., China, Japan, Singapore, the U.K., Germany, the Netherlands, Brazil, and beyond (note: I was very pleased to be able to attend).The conference began with a didactic symposium (~2.5 hours) on the issue of mirror life that is available on YouTube. The symposium recording is highly recommended as an excellent tour...
