Rockefeller University
Vincent A. Fischetti (born 1940) is an American microbiologist and immunologist, and Head of the Laboratory of Bacterial Pathogenesis and Immunology at Rockefeller University in New York City.
He is known for pioneering the use of phage lysins as therapeutics, and for being the first scientist to clone and sequence a surface protein on gram-positive bacteria, the M protein from Streptococcus pyogenes, determining its unique coiled-coil structure.[1][2][3]
The Fischetti lab is the oldest continuous lab at Rockefeller, having been started in 1926, and was formerly headed by Homer Swift, Maclyn McCarty and Emil Gotschlich. Fischetti's primary areas of research are bacterial pathogenesis, bacterial genomics, immunology, virology, microbiology, and therapeutics.

"I think phage cocktails will have a use, but it will be a boutique treatment," Fischetti told me on the phone. "But phage cocktails are very complex and difficult to deal with, so I think lysins will be accepted before phages will only because it's a purified material and the FDA is more comfortable with that."
